Glass Formation And Polyamorphism In Rare-Earth Oxide-Aluminum Oxide Compositions

Formation of single and two-phase glasses from rare-earth oxide-alumina materials is reported in this article. Liquids with the Y3Al5O12 and Er3Al5O12 compositions underwent a liquid-liquid phase transition which resulted in glasses with a cloudy appearance due to spheroids of one glass in a matrix of a second glass. The two glasses were isocompositional within the limits of experimental error.
