Atomic- and void-species nanostructures in chalcogenide glasses modified by high-energy γ-irradiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Atomicand void-species nanostructures are studied in As2S3 glass in unmodified and γ-modified states using a combination of conventional X-ray diffraction in respect to the first sharp diffraction peak, synchrotron-based high-energy Xray diffraction and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. The experimental data are analyzed taking into account radiation-induced changes in the parameters of the first sharp diffraction peak (position, full width at half maximum, intensity), packing factor, structural disordering, atomic and void topology, coordination number and mean square deviation in bond length. The origin of the structural modification effect induced by γ-irradiation is explained in terms of coordination topological defects model.

Fabrication and Structural Characterization of Se-Ge Chalcogenide Glasses by Means of Melt Quenching Technique
The structural and optical characterization of Se-Ge alloys during melt quenching technique was the goal of this study. In this regards, five different samples of Se100-xGex (x= 10, 20, 30, 40, 50) were prepared by conventional melt quenching in quartz ampoule. The produced samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calori...
متن کاملCrystallization Kinetics of Chalcogenide Glasses
Chalcogenide glasses are disordered non crystalline materials which have pronounced tendency their atoms to link together to form link chain. Chalcogenide glasses can be obtained by mixing the chalcogen elements, viz, S, Se and Te with elements of the periodic table such as Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn, As, Sb and Bi, Ag, Cd, Zn etc. In these glasses, short-range inter-atomic forces are predominantly cov...

Material components for the nuclear fusion and the advanced nuclear fi ssion reactors are exposed to high levels of radiation energy, high temperature, and high thermo-mechanical stresses. Radiation damage is inherently a multiscale phenomenon, with interactions encompassing time scales from femto-seconds to years and length scales from subnanometer to meters. In this study, multiscale modeling...

Background: the supplementation of natural antioxidants such plant flavonoids may counteract the deleterious actions of gamma-irradiation and iron overload. Material and Methods: the protective effect of naringin (NIN) against kidney injury induced by γ-irradiation (IRR) (6.5 Gy) and/or iron dextran (ID) (50 mg/kg. b. w) has been studied in rats given 80 mg/kg b.w of NIN for 14 days before, and...
متن کاملMicro-Optical Lenslets by Photo-Expansion in Chalcogenide Glasses
A detailed study of the wavelength dependence of the formation of lenslets by photo-expansion in chalcogenide glasses is reported. Photo-expansion in chalcogenide glasses offers a one-step fabrication process to record surface structures such as gratings and microlenses. The process is purely optical and requires no fixing and etching to get the desired surface structure. Two competing effects,...
