Raman scattering, lithium tetraborate, erbium oxide, terbium oxide, structural complexes, mixed vibrations, phononsAbstract
Spectra of Raman scattering in glassy lithium tetraborate activated with erbium and terbium oxides to various concentrations have been studied. It is found that the main components of the observed structures in the Raman scattering spectra of Li2B4O7 : Er2O3 and Li2B4O7 : Tb2O3 glasses obtained in the framework of a medium-order approximation are induced by mixed vibrations of complicated boron/lithium/erbium/terbium-oxygen structural complexes.
