(0.0 ≤ x ≤ 8.0) chalcogenide alloys have been prepared by quenching method. The results show that the system is in floppy mode having constant average coordination number 2. The estimated density shows an increase with the Ag content. The mean bond energy and glass transition temperature vary in a similar fashion with an increment in Ag atomic % in the Se-Te system. The value of cohesive energy (1.91 eV mol−1 to 1.97 eV mol−1) and average bond strength (24.19 kcal mol−1 to 25 kcal mol−1) has shown increasing trend in the system. From the results of the investigated samples, the covalency parameter > 90%. So, it can be assumed that compositions are stable glass formers and may be used in the infrared system.

“…The causes of these processes are described in numerous publications [3][4][5][6]. In this work there is no task to explain these processes, but if the reader is interested, he can familiarize himself with the publication on this topic [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. This article focuses on the practical use of chalcogenide amorphous material as a solid immersion medium for the study of precious stones.…”

This paper describes a method for detecting defects inside high-refractive index gems. This method consists in immersion of a precious stone inside low-melting chalcogenide glass. After cooling, molten glass turns into a solid phase and is an optical cube. This cube can be photographed in layers and using OctoNus equimpment a 3D model of gemstone defects can be built. The proposed method allows you to effectively and accurately determine the coordinates of the defects in diamond and to offer the most profitable option for polishing a precious stone.
“…34), were calculated and based on the calibration, carried out on the fused silica reference sample, the values of A c (the contact area) were determined. Finally, the Oliver-Pharr method was used (see eqn (5) in ref. 34) to extract the nanohardness (H ind ) of the As 2 Se 3 thin lm as shown in Table 3.…”

“…1,2 Also the structural arrangement of chalcogenide glasses is still of interest. [3][4][5] One of the important mechanical characteristics of solids is density, which affects various optical, electrical and mechanical properties. Changes in density can signicantly inuence the refractive index of a material as it follows for example, from the Lorentz-Lorenz relation.…”
Amorphous As2S3, As2Se3 and As1Se99 bulk glasses and thin films were prepared on different substrates by melt quenching technique and vacuum thermal evaporation. The resulting properties were compared.
