Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis Of Vanadium Oxide Doped Sodium Zinc Phosphate Glass Matrix

The phosphate glass system of chemical composition 40P(2)O(5) -37ZnO`-2CuO-(20 - x) Na2O-(x) V(2)O(5)in molar ratio with( x=1,2,3,4,5, and6). were prepared using a conventional melt-quench technique. The infrared spectra were measured over a continuous spectral range (400-4000 cm(-1)) in an attempt to study their structure systematically. The most active peaks were observed in the region from 400 cm(-1) to 2500 cm(-1). FT-IR spectra were analyzed to determine and differentiate the various vibrational modes by applying a deconvolution method to them. They show specific vibrations of phosphate units.
