A study on the migration of Co(II) and Fe(III) ions in the process of thermal phase separation of an alkali-borosilicate glass containing cobalt and ubiquitous trace iron
Abstract:Absorption spectra of added Co(II) ions and EPR spectra of both Co(II) and ubiquitous Fe(III) ions in an alkali-borosilicate glass of vycor-type composition are studied both before and after thermal phase separation of the glass as well as in a silica glass derived from the phase-separated glass through vycorization. The results show that although almost all Co(II) ions migrate to the separated alkali-borate phase at the time of phase separation, only the interstitial ions in the case of Fe(III) take part in s… Show more
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.
