Abstract

CaO-P2O5-ZnO-SiO2-B2O3 glasses with varying compositions of calcium oxide and phosphorous oxide are synthesized using sol-gel technique. The glasses are heat-treated for a duration of 10 h at 500°C to obtain the glass-ceramics. The glass-ceramics and glasses are characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Visible spectroscopy. Extinction coefficients, attenuation coefficients and dielectric constant have been obtained for all the glasses as well as glass ceramics. The results are discussed in light of non-bridging oxygens (NBO) and heat-treatment of glasses. In addition to this, the effect of calcium and phosphorous on the infra-red spectra has been analysed thoroughly.
