Abstract
Chalcogenide glasses are remarkable materials for remote sensors, infrared imaging and infrared fibers due to their transparency in Far-infrared (IR) region. Far-IR absorption spectra of Ge19Se81−xSbx (x=0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 17.2, 20) and Ge19−ySe63.8Sb17.2Tey (y=0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) have been obtained in the range of 30–350cm−1. Three possible bond arrangement approaches viz. chain-crossing model (CCM), random-covalent-network model (RCNM) and chemical bond approach (CBA) have been used to discuss the formation of bonds. Results are explained on the basis of GeSe4, GeSe2 and SbSe3 isolated structural units which have appeared in Ge–Se–Sb system while Se6Te2 rings, GeTe4 tetrahedron, GeTe2, GeSe4 and GeSe2 structural units have appeared for Ge–Se–Sb–Te system.
