Abstract
The electron spin resonance and optical absorption spectra of PbO-CdO glasses containing 1 mole% CuO have been investigated at room temperature. The optical absorption spectra of all glass samples have exhibited a broad asymmetric absorption band, which corresponds to a d–d transition of Cu 2+ ions. The prepared glass samples have been analyzed as a function of the photon energy. The results are interpreted based on the optical absorption spectral profiles and also the edge values upon the application of Davis and Mott's theory. From the ESR spectral features, the spin Hamiltonian parameters have been evaluated. The bonding coefficients were obtained, in order to elucidate the information on the Cu 2+ ligand bond nature.
