Abstract

This study aims to elucidate the structural evolution of Ta5+ in the binary Li2O-Ta2O5 melts. The melt structure was characterized by using in situ high-temperature Raman spectroscopy. Combined with constructed Ta-O cluster models and quantum chemistry ab initio calculations to simulate Raman spectra, quantitative analysis of different coordination structures in melts was achieved by the deconvolu…
