Non-isothermal crystallization kinetic study on Ga15Se85−xAgx chalcogenide glasses by using differential scanning calorimetry

Non-isothermal crystallization in Ga–Se–Ag chalcogenide glass by differential scanning calorimetry

“…This research work is in continuation with our earlier published paper [30]. In the present study we have incorporated 10% of Ag concentration in Ga-Se system.…”

Kinetic Analysis of Thermal Processes in Ag-As-S-Se System Based on DSC Measurements

“…The minimum value of K 0 has the glass with higher content of Ag indicating that the transformation rate for this glass is slower. The enthalpy release refers to the metastability of the glasses [3]. Analyzing only the first crystallization peak, the minimum value of H c has the glass sample with 5 at.% Ag which confirms its higher stability.…”

“…Dependence of ln(T 2 p /β) versus 1000/T p for the first and the second crystallization peak for Ag 3 glasses is given in Fig. 5a.…”

“…Properties that glasses exhibit during their heating or cooling indicate the existence of phase transitions such are softening, crystallization and melting of crystalline centers, which are important information in the optimization of the synthesis parameters. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is suitable experimental technique for this kind of analysis and it can be performed on chalcogenide glasses under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions [3]. Likewise, in the glassy materials it is of great importance to examine the thermal stability.…”

Experimental investigation of the Ce–Cu phase diagram

“…The bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) have attracted much attention due to the unique properties and potential applications as functional materials [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The Ce-Cu system is one of the sub-systems of the Ce-based bulk metallic glasses with an exceptionally low glass transition temperature [4,10].…”
