摘要
A new type of cerium borate glass-ceramic is prepared and studied. The microstructure and crystallization behaviors of the glass samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron diffraction (ED), and <sup><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;">31</span></sup><span style="font-family:Verdana;">P NMR spectroscopy. The microstructures of samples contain <1 mol% CeO</span><sub><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;">2</span></sub><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span><span style="font-family:;" "=""><span style="font-family:Verdana;">are amorphous in nature. More addition of CeO</span><sub><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;">2</span></sub><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> transforms the glass to glass-ceramics without thermal annealing. The morphological change of the microstructure of these materials was followed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The obtained results have revealed that the addition of more than 0.8 mol% CeO</span><sub><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;">2</span></sub><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> can promote nucleation and crystallization routes that </span></span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">are </span><span style="font-family:;" "=""><span style="font-family:Verdana;">combined with the establishment of diverse crystalline phases.
