Popis: | In this paper, the impact of the post-heat-treatment on the structural and spectroscopic properties as well as on the chemical durability of a thermally stable Er3+-doped phosphate glass in the system P2O5 - K2O - Al2O3 - B2O3 - BaO - PbO - La2O3 - Gd2O3 is reported. Two crystalline phases, namely La, Gd-monazite and AlKP2O7, were found to precipitate from the surface of the glass after heat-treatment, as confirmed by both X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDX) analyses. Moreover, the heat-treatment was responsible for the formation of a more polymerized glass network close to the surface crystalline layer as evidenced using micro-Raman spectroscopy. From the changes in the Er3+ optical properties, some of the Er3+ ions are suspected to enter in the crystals. Both the as-prepared and heat-treated glasses were subjected to a degradation test in hydrochloric acid (HCl) and showed a congruent and incongruent dissolution behavior, respectively. |
