AbstractThe glass-ceramics of the phosphorus containing Na5RSi4O12type (R=rare earth) Na+-superionic conductors (Narpsio-V) in the system Na2O-Sm2O3-P2O5-SiO2 were prepared by crystallization of glasses with the composition Na3+3x-ySm1-xPySi3-yO9. The optimum conditions for crystallization were discussed with reference to the conduction properties and the preparation of uncracked bulky glass-ceramic Narpsio-V. The ionic conductivity of the glass-ceramic Na3.9Sm0.6P0.3Si2.7O9 at 300°C was drastically enhanced from 2.38×10-2 S/cm to 7.15×10-2 S/cm upon implantation of 200 keV Na+ ions to a fluence of 1 × 1015 cm-2.

ABSTRACTNeutron detection scintillators based on rare-earth activated transparent glass and glass-ceramics are reported. Ce3+ doped gadolinium halides in 6LiF modified aluminosilicate glass matrices were synthesized by a melt-quench method followed by annealing. Their optical properties and alpha, neutron scintillation performance were investigated and compared to conventional 6Li-based scintillating glass.

This study focused on the effect of Zr-inclusion on Na[Formula: see text] conduction properties of the newly developed glass–ceramic solid solutions of Na5FeSi4O[Formula: see text] and Na4ZrSi4O[Formula: see text]. We experimentally confirmed formation of an all proportional solid solution in the range of [Formula: see text]= 0 and 1.0 with the composition Na[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text]Zr[Formula: see text]Si4O[Formula: see text]. Glass–ceramic with a fast Na[Formula: see text]-conducting Na5YSi4O[Formula: see text]-type single phase was obtained in all the solid solutions. The conduction properties of the glass–ceramics were improved with increasing content of Zr, and Na4ZrSi4O[Formula: see text] was the most conductive glass–ceramic. The ionic conductivities were as high as 1.9 × 10[Formula: see text] S cm[Formula: see text] and 9.3 × 10[Formula: see text] S cm[Formula: see text] at temperatures of 25[Formula: see text]C and 300 [Formula: see text]C, respectively. The improved conductivity was attributed to the expansion of the conduction path by larger Zr ions replacing FeO6 octahedra.

Transparent sol–gel-derived silica–(Gd,Pr)PO4 glass-ceramics free from inert rare-earth ions exhibit narrow-band UVB photoluminescence from Gd3+ ions at ∼313 nm with internal quantum efficiency close to unity and external quantum efficiency higher than 0.9 under excitation into the 5d state of Pr3+ ions.

This work presents state of the art rare-earth activated SnO2 nanocrystals - based transparent glass-ceramics. With combined enhancements in both photorefractivity and rare-earth photoluminescence, the glass-ceramic has unique benefits as a lasing material. It exhibits high photorefractivity with UV induced refractive index modifications in the order of 10-3. Exploiting its high photorefractivity, optical gratings are fabricated on the glass-ceramic under an energy-efficient direct UV writing process. Furthermore, SnO2 semiconductor nanocrystals are also employed as efficient rare-earth sensitizers enhancing drastically the rare-earth photoluminescence.
