Abstract

Melt-quenching techniques were employed to produce a series of Nd 2 O 3 doped Al 2 O 3 –Na 2 O–WO 3 –B 2 O 3 glasses. Structure, optical, and thermal properties were investigated to illustrate the effectiveness of the Nd3+ ions in enhancement performance and analyze their behaviour. Nd 2 O 3 demonstrably contributed to the composite, as evidenced by evaluating all features. The density marginally rises with the addition of Nd 2 O 3 instead of B 2 O 3. The relevant physical characteristics had been calculated. The structure was analyzed by FTIR measurement and identified the vibration modes of varied concentrations. From FTIR spectra, N 4 values were reckoned, and the conversion of the network structure unit from BO 3 to BO 4 was verified. Numerous significant peaks have been caught in the absorption bands of the UV–Vis–NIR measurement. Optical bandgap and band tail are determined. DSC measurements were utilized to identify the thermal characteristics. As Nd3+ ions increased, glass thermal stability improved. Overall, the Nd3+ ion modifier rule was realized.
