摘要
The effect of different concentrations of the network modifier Na2O on the position of the Boson peak, observed in the low frequency Raman scattering experiments, is analyzed. Glasses containing 25%Na2O (Na2O · 4SiO2) and 33%Na2O (Na2O · 2SiO2) are compared with pure SiO2 glass. The observed shift of the Boson peak is interpreted in terms of a change of a correlation length, ℓ, corresponding to some medium range order. This length, ℓ, decreases when the amount of sodium oxide increases.
