The temperature3concentration dependence of the conductivity in glasses of the system Li 2 O3P 2 O 5 was studied. The content of extrinsic hydrogen in the structure of glasses was estimated by IR transmission spectra. The effect of hydrogen on the electrical properties and structure of the glasses studied was considered.
Abstract:We study waveguide fabrication in lithium-niobo-phosphate glass, aiming at a practical method of single-stage fabrication of nonlinear integrated-optics devices. We observed chemical transformations or material redistribution during the course of high repetition rate femtosecond laser inscription. We believe that the laser-induced ultrafast heating and cooling followed by elements diffusion on a microscopic scale opens the way toward the engineering non-equilibrium sates of matter and thus can further enhance Refractive Index (RI) contrasts by virtue of changing glass composition in and around the fs tracks.

Electrical conductivity of Li(Na,K)2O‐Nb2O5‐P2O5 glasses and glass‐forming melts has been measured in a wide temperature range (298‐1173 K). Logarithm of the preexponential factor and activation energy of migration have been determined. Mixed alkali effect has been observed in niobophosphate glass‐forming melts. Diffusion coefficients for Li+, Na+, and K+ ions have been calculated. The influence of the type of alkali ion and Nb2O5 content on the diffusion coefficients has been determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
