Ge-Ga-S glasses, contrary to other well-known chalcogenide glasses, show high rare-earth solubility. Raman spectra of GeS2-Ga2S3 glasses showed that two peaks at 260 cm-1 and 385 cm-1 increased in intensity with the addition of Ga2S3. These peaks are associated with the vibration of Ge-Ge bonds and edge-shared [GsS4] tetrahedra, respectively. In GeS2-Ga2S3-La2S3 glasses, the peak at 260 cm-1 decreased in intensity with addition of La2S3 and the one at 375 cm-1 due to the vibration of tetrahedra with non-bridging sulfurs increased. It indicated that La, or rare-earths in general, can easily be dissolved into the glass network as charge compensators for non-bridging sulfurs which were formed through the dissociation of Ge-Ge bonds and edge-shared [GaS4] tetrahedra. Since no such structural modification is expected in glasses as Ga-As-S, these peculiar transitions on the connection scheme in Ga-containing chalcogenide glasses seem to be playing the most important role on the enhanced rare-earth solubility.

Chalcogenide glasses with compositions of Ge10Se90-xTex(X=0~50 at.%) were prepared in order to investigate the effects of Te substitution on the transmission characteristics of Ge-Se glasses in the 8~12 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ wavelength region. Absorption coefficients were observed to decrease with Te addition, indicating the improved transmission capabilities of Ge-Se-Te glasses as compared to binary Ge-Se glasses. XRD analysis of crystallized glasses suggested the formation of weaker Se-Te and/or Te-Te bonds with addition of Te substituting for Se in stronger Se-Se bonds. Incorporation of Te in excess of 20at% resulted in the formation of hexagonal Te phases when crystallized. It is speculated that the presence of Te-Te bonds with highly metallic bond character resulted in the enhanced crystallization tendencies of glasses. Fromation of Te-rich chains through gradual replacement of Se-Se with Se-Te and/or Te-Te bonds was further supported by decreases in glass transition and crystallization temperatures.

This study explores the compression molding of diffractive-aspheric lenses using GeSbSe chalcogenide glasses. A mold core with diffractive structure was prepared and a chalcogenide glass lens was molded at various temperatures using the corresponding core. The effect of molding temperature on the transcription characteristics of diffractive structure was examined, by measuring and comparing the diffractive structure between the mold core and the molded chalcogenide glass lens using a microscope and a white light interferometer. In addition, the applicability of the molded lens for thermal imaging was evaluated, by measuring the form error.

The recent development of electro-optic devices and anticorrosion media has made it necessary investigate infrared optical systems with solid-solid interfaces of materials with amorphous characteristics. One of the most promising classes of materials for these purposes seems to be chalcogenide glasses, which are based on the Ge_Sb_Se system, have drawn much attention because of their use in preparing optical lenses and fibers that are transparent in the range of 3-12 um. In this study, a standard melt-quenching technique was used to prepare amorphous Ge_Sb_Sechalcogenideto be used in the design and manufacture of infrared optical products. The results of structural, optical, and surface roughness analyses of high purity Ge_Sb_Sechalcogenide glasses after various annealing processes reported.

Thermal and structural stability in the glass transition region of chalcogenide glasses has been investigated in terms of thermodynamics for application to various optoelectronic devices. In this study, the compositions of $Ge_xSb_{20}Se_{80-x}$ (x = 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30) were selected to investigate the glass stability according to germanium ratios. The chalcogenide bulks were fabricated by using a traditional melt-quenching method. Thin films were deposited by a thermal evaporation system, maintaining the deposition ratio of $3{\sim}5{\AA}$ in order to have uniformity. The thermal and structural properties were measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The DSC analysis provided thermal parameters and theoretical glass region stabilities. The XRD analysis supported the theoretical stabilities because of where the crystallization peak data occurred.
