The influence of obtaining and heat treatment conditions on the structure of As₂S₃-SbSI system

Abstract

(As₂S₃)₁₀₀₋x(SbSI)x (x = 80 and 90) glasses were prepared by cooling homogenized melts from 720…750 K in cold water. Their structure and structural changes under heat treatment of glasses are confirmed by studies of micro-Raman scattering and X-ray diffraction. In the matrix of these glasses, we observed SbSI nanocrystalline inclusions. It has been shown that the sizes of crystalline inclusions are dependent on the heat treatment regimes.
