“…Titanium oxide glasses free of conventional glass‐forming cations, such as Si, B, P, or Te, are able to be vitrified by roller quenching or through containerless processes where the melt‐crucible interface is absent
1–4 . Typically formed with alkaline‐earth or rare‐earth cations as the ‘modifier’,
based glasses are of interest for electrical
5 and optical
6–8 applications. Titanate glasses defy Zachariasen's rules with their high coordination numbers and significant edge sharing
9–11 .…”
