Abstract
We have demonstrated the change of the Raman spectra in F-doped silica glasses with various fictive temperatures, and have also presented a useful peak-deconvolution technique for evaluating the relative concentration of D1 and D2 bands that could be attributed to four- and three-membered ring structures. The intensities of D1 and D2 bands are mainly dominated by the fictive temperature, and they are not almost affected by the F content at the same fictive temperature. It has been made clear that the intensity of D1 band as well as D2 band has a linear relationship with the IR peak position around 2260 cm−1 that is correlated with the average Si–O–Si bond angle, irrespective of the F content. The “activation energies” of D1 and D2, estimated from the Arrhenius plot, are 0.26 and 0.41 eV, respectively.
