Formation, Microstructure, and Conductivity of a Novel Ga2S3-Sb2S3-AgI Chalcogenide System

Abstract Novel glasses in a Ga2S3-Sb2S3-AgI system were prepared with a melt-quenching method, and their glass-forming region was identified. The maximum dissolvable AgI in glasses was 65 mol%. The thermal, optical, and structural properties of glasses were investigated as a function of AgI and Ga2S...
