Title: Structure and formation mechanism of six-fold coordinated silicon in phosphosilicate glasses

Abstract

The local structure of sixfold oxygen coordinated silicon ({sup [6]}Si) in sodium phosphosilicate glasses has been investigated using MAS NMR spectroscopy and ab initio quantum-chemical techniques. It has been demonstrated that {sup [6]}Si is interconnected by six PO{sub 4} tetrahedral units by sharing only their corners, forming a nearly regular [SiO{sub 6/2}]{sup 2-} octahedral site. Alkali cations behave as charge compensators of the doubly charged {sup [6]}Si species and hence play an indispensable role in stabilizing the peculiar octahedral coordination in the glasses.
