Structural and optical properties of ion - conducting lithium bismuthate glasses are reported here. The structure of these glasses has been explored from the compositional variation of the density, molar volume, and glass transition temperature. The optical study in the visible and infrared region indicates a large transmission window for these glasses. The BiO6 octahedra were identified as the main structural unit from the Raman spectra of these bismuthate glasses.

Abstract The micro-structural features and the optical properties of polymer blends (PB) of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) base with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polymer nanocomposites (PNC) of PVDF base with graphene oxide (GO) as fillers are compared. Different weight fractions of PVDF/PEG and PVDF/GO samples were prepared through solution casting followed by spin coating. The microstructure of PVDF/PEG and PVDF/GO shows formation of immiscible/compatible/ homogenous microstructures over different extents of loading of the filler components. UV-Visible spectrometry revealed an increase in absorbance with the amount of filler and the absorbance was found to be lesser and highly dispersive for the PB as compared to PNC, attributed to the heterogeneity/electrical conductivity of the respective fillers of the two systems. Spectroscopic ellipsometry was used to study the various optical constants (e.g. refractive index, extinction co-efficient, etc.) & their dispersion behavior over the visible range of wavelengths. The parameters show large variation as a function of component fillers due to the different extent of interaction of matrix/filler. The optimized parameters were obtained for the 20% PB & the 5% PNC samples respectively, suggesting PNC with nano fillers are always to be a better choice for developing them as materials suitable for various optical applications.

Here we use model nanocomposites based on polystyrene and polyphenylene dendrimers to show both theoretically and experimentally that inclusion of rigid nanoparticles of 2.3–5 nm size into the polymer leads to a negligible glass transition temperature (Tg) increase.

Bulk glasses of xNb2O5(1-x)La2O3(NL) with high refractive index were prepared by aerodynamic levitation method. Only when x ranges from 0.62 to 0.72, NL glasses can be obtained. The effect of compositions on the thermal property and refractive index was investigated. The results indicated that the glass transition temperature ranged from 733 to 767 with the increasing of La2O3in NL glasses, while the crystallization peak ranged from 811 to 837 . The glasses had high refractive index ranging from 2.26 to 2.31. According to the Drude-Voigt relationship, the Abbe number of the glasses was calculated to be about 20. This type of glass was colorless and transparent in the region from visible to infrared region. Thus, the niobate glass system has promising application in lenses, next-generation optical disk, and endoscopes.
