How do empty d-orbital cations affect the non linear optical properties of SiO2-based glasses?

It has been confirmed early in the nineties that adding oxides of empty d-orbital cations (like TiO2, Nb2O5, WO3...) improves the non-linear optical response (namely third order non linear...

How to determine the crystal structure of nanoparticles (less than 5nm) embedded in a glass network?

Hello!Let's imagine a glass network (silica-based for instance) and some crystalline nanosized (< 5nm) particles are statistically distributed through this network. Indeed, by means of Raman...
