Variation of the Structural Unit in Tellurite Glasses
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
We show that the variation of the structural unit in tellurite glasses is due to the charge transfer from modifier atoms to TeO6 octahedra with use of first-principles molecular orbital calculations. Orbital overlap population analysis reveals that the transferred electrons to the Te- O antibonding orbital cause breaking Te-O bonds and lead to reducing the coordination number of the Te atom.
