Abstract

Three-component fluoride glasses are obtained by fast quenching in the systems InF3-BaF2 associated with YbF3, ThF4, or ZnF2.

ChemInform Abstract

Three-component fluoride glasses are obtained by fast quenching in the systems InF3-BaF2 associated with YbF3, ThF4, or ZnF2. Glasses obtained in four-component systems such as InF3-BaF2 associated with YbF3-ThF4, YbF3-ZnF2, or ThF4-ZnF2 are most stable against devitrification. The glass forming domains of the ternary and quaternary systems are determined and expansion coefficients and optical transmission are reported for the most significant compositions indicating a multiphonon edge located in the 8 μm region.
