Yttrium doped phosphate-based glasses: structural and degradation analyses (2020)
Journal Article
Arafat, A., Samad, S. A., Titman, J. J., Lewis, A. L., Barney, E. R., & Ahmed, I. (2020). Yttrium doped phosphate-based glasses: structural and degradation analyses. Biomedical Glasses, 6(1), 34-49. https://doi.org/10.1515/bglass-2020-0004

This study investigates the role of yttrium in phosphate-based glasses in the system 45(P2O5)-25(CaO)-(30-x)(Na2O)-x(Y2O3) (0?x?5) prepared via melt quenching and focuses on their structural characterisation and degradation properties. The structural... Read More about Yttrium doped phosphate-based glasses: structural and degradation analyses.

Toward a Structural Model for the Aluminum Tellurite Glass System (2020)
Journal Article
Barney, E., Laorodphan, N., Mohd-Noor, F., Holland, D., Kemp, T., Iuga, D., & Dupree, R. (2020). Toward a Structural Model for the Aluminum Tellurite Glass System. Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 124(37), 20516–20529. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpcc.0c04342

Neutron diffraction, 27Al MAS NMR, and 27Al Double Quantum MAS NMR results are presented and analyzed to determine the local environments of the cations in a series of aluminum tellurite glasses. Total scattering results show that, within a maximum T... Read More about Toward a Structural Model for the Aluminum Tellurite Glass System.

Experimental photoluminescence and lifetimes at wavelengths including beyond 7 microns in Sm3+-doped selenide-chalcogenide glass fibers (2020)
Journal Article
Crane, R. W., Sojka, Ł., Furniss, D., Nunes, J., Barney, E., Farries, M. C., …Seddon, A. B. (2020).
