Abstract
Infrared and near-infrared transmission spectra have been taken on 19 volcanic and synthetic silicate glasses with known H2O contents (0.06–6.9 wt. %). Absorption peaks were observed at wavelengths of 1.41 μm, 1.91 μm, 2.22 μm, 2.53 μm, and 2.8 μm. These peaks have been attributed to the first overtone of the OH stretching vibration, the combination stretching+bending mode of H2O molecules, the combination stretching+bending mode of X-OH groups, a combination mode of the fundamental OH stretch+a low energy lattice vibration, and the fundamental OH stretching mode, respectively. Molar absorptivities of the peaks have been determined to be 0.2, 1.8, 1.0, 0.9, and 67 l/mol-cm. These values apply over the full range of glass compositions studied (albite, rhyolite, basalt).
