Transparent glass-ceramics of magnesium aluminum silicate system based on nanosized MgAl2O4 spinel crystals nucleated by TiO2 and doped with Fe2O3 were developed. Their structure and spectroscopic properties were studied. The glass-ceramics are important as reference samples in development of saturable absorbers in the short-wave infrared spectral range (2-3 μm).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
