Abstract

Glasses in the NiO–TiO2 system in the composition range 15 to 25 mol% of NiO have been synthesized by the sol-gel technique by heat treatment of the precursor sol at 500°C. The glass structure is built up by crosslinking of two units, namely TiO6 octahedron and NiO3 triangle. Glassy structure is confirmed at a microscopic level by scanning electron microscopy. An increase in the values of peak-to-peak width of electron paramagnetic resonance with increasing concentration of Ni2+ is attributed to an enhanced interaction between neighboring paramagnetic Ni2+ ions.
