Abstract
ⶠLiF-Bi2O3-P2O5 glasses mixed with different concentrations of TiO2 were prepared. ⶠElectrical and spectroscopic properties were investigated. ⶠOptical absorption and luminescence studies indicated that bismuth ions exist in Bi5+ and Bi3+ states. ⶠD.C. conduction is explained on the basis of small polaron hopping model and the conduction is adiabatic in nature. ⶠIonic conduction seems to prevail over polaron hopping in the glasses containing TiO2 more than 2.0 mol%.
