“…Indeed, previous investigations carried out on Ag 2 O-based glasses have shown that high molar concentrations of Ag 2 O are required to signicantly impact on the glass conductivity. [65][66][67][68][69] At these low concentrations, it is probable that silver oxide Ag 2 O is simply formed upon exposure with the ambient air during the formation of the glass and the stretching of the bers. Furthermore, the UV-Vis spectra for the bulk glasses do not show any absorption band that could result from the presence of silver nanoparticles or clusters plasmon.…”
We report the fabrication, characterization, and fiber drawing of a silver iodide tungsten-phosphate glass that conducts both light and electricity efficiently.

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.
