Raman spectroscopic study of hexavalent chromium in some silicate and borate glasses

Journal Article · · Mater. Res. Bull.; (United States)

The polarized Raman spectra of chromium-doped silicate and borate glasses have been measured and interpreted. It is shown that hexavalent chromium exists in silicate glasses as isolated chromate anions (CrO/sub 4//sup 2 -/). In binary sodium borate glasses there is a change of species from chromate to dichromate as the B/sub 2/O/sub 3/ concentration is increased.
