Annealed thin–film glasses to produce glass compositions in Fe–P–O system (high-Fe, high-Fe2+/Fe3+) not previously achieved.
Demonstrated ability to change redox condition and crystallization behavior through post-melt heat treatments.
Demonstrated effects of “aging” and particle size on crystallization behavior of iron phosphate glasses. UV-Vis spectra showing change in redox condition
with heat treatment.
Ten pure compounds synthesized successfully (ferric, ferrous and ferric–ferrous phosphates). Disproved existence of two compounds originally claimed in system.
Revision of Fe2O3–P2O5 phase diagram in progress (major changes from 1935 original).
Building block toward thermodynamic characteri-zation of Fe -P–O system, prediction of phases crystallizing from glasses.
