When monochromatic radiation νo, is incident on a system (gas, solid, liquid, glass, whether
colored or transparent) most of the radiation is transmitted through the system without …

This paper will thus give an overview of methods to reduce efficiently the Rayleigh scattering
loss via the fictive temperature in silica-based optical fibers. We will first recall what the …

Raman micro-spectroscopy is used to analyse the plastic behaviour of window glass (a soda-
lime silicate glass) under high hydrostatic pressure and Vickers indentation. We show …

Raman scattering experiments have been carried out to study persistent densification in SiO
2 glass following hydrostatic compression at room temperature. A new relationship linking …

Microscopic deformation processes determine defect formation on glass surfaces and, thus,
the material's resistance to mechanical failure. While the macroscopic strength of most …

The elastic and plastic behaviors of silica glasses densified at various maximum pressure
reached (12 GPa, 15 GPa, 19 GPa, and 22 GPa), were analyzed using in situ Raman and …

The effects of single femtosecond laser pulse irradiation (130 fs pulse duration, 800 nm
center wavelength) on the structure of binary lithium silicate glasses of varying chemical …

Raman spectroscopy is a useful experimental tool to investigate local deformation and
structural changes in SiO 2-based glasses. Using a semi-classical modeling of Raman …

High-pressure polarized Raman spectra of vitreous silica are measured up to 8 GPa in a
diamond-anvil cell at room temperature. The combined use of either a nonpenetrating …

Materials with thermal-invariant elastic properties are of interest for resonant device
frequency and dimensional stability of precision devices. Here, we demonstrate that the …
