Abstract
Theoretical insights of the ultrasonic relaxation process in PbO–WO3–TeO2 glasses were investigated according to a model related to the propagation of ultrasonic waves in active two-well potential. The energy transfer of the ultrasonic waves either longitudinal or transverse to the glass network can create two-well potential based on the oxygen atoms displacements. The parameters of the model such as the mutual potential energy, the loss-centers, the prolongation or shrinkage of the double-well system, deformation potential were affected with the concentrations of the PbO. The number of loss centers was correlated to the compositional dependence of the elastic moduli on PbO content. The results showed that the degree of prolongation or shrinkage of the double-well system is affected with the concentration of PbO.
