Glass formation occurs in the zinc tellurite system in the region of the eutectic (21 mol% ZnO) on the TeO2-rich side of
the phase diagram. Glasses are characterized by a high refractive index which increases with TeO 2 content. The glasses are
transmitting from about 400 nm to about 6 ~zm with O - H absorption bands at 3.3 and 4.4 ~m. Short range order of the
glasses was deduced with neutron diffraction, infrared and Raman spectroscopy by comparison with the spectra of the
synthesized crystalline a-TeO2, Zn2Te30 8 and ZnTeO 3. Glasses consist of disordered TeO4, TeO3+ 1 and TeO 3 building
units. The number of the TeO3+ 1 units is limited by ZnO addition. There is a relatively strong structural correlation
between the glasses and the crystalline compound ZnzTe30 s in accord with the phase diagram.

2. Experimental
Glasses were obtained with 17.4-37.2 mol%
ZnO prepared at cooling rates of 1 K / m i n and
10 K / s from batches of T e O 2 'pure for optical
purpose' and ZnO 'pro analysis' of Chemapol,
Prague, and at cooling rate > 103 K / s by roller
techniques outside the glass-forming range [3].
Batches were melted in gold crucibles at temperatures of 1133-1223 K with a melting time of 45
min. Glass transition temperature, density, refractive index and transmittance of the glasses
were measured. We calculated the partial dispersion, the anomalous relative partial dispersion
and transmittance values A~i0.5 and A~i0.1 * of
the samples. The transmittance of glasses was
determined from 185 to 900 nm, using a Specord
M40 (Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany) spectrophotometer with optical pathlengths of 11 and 1 mm
and in the NIR with a sample thickness of 2 mm.
The standard KBr pellets technique was used for
IR measurements from 900 to 250 c m - ] using a
Perkin-Elmer, model 457 spectrophotometer.
The glasses, recrystallization products obtained by annealing at 673 K in inert atmosphere
and compounds a-TeO2, Zn2Te30 8 and Z n T e O 3
synthesized by solid state reactions, were used for
structural investigations. Crystalline phases were
identified by X-ray diffraction using standard
procedure.
Raman spectra of crystalline materials, glass
powders and glass rods were obtained using an
Ar laser (model ILA 120, Carl Zeiss, Jena,
Germany) at A = 514.5 nm and of 700 mW excitation. The experimental apparatus is described in
detail in ref. [23].
A glass of the composition 80 ml% T e O 2 and
20 mol% ZnO was melted at 1123 K in a Pt
crucible and cooled with a rate of about ~ 10
K / s for the neutron diffraction measurements.
Neutron diffraction curves of powdered glasses
were obtained by a diffractometer installed at
nuclear reactor type WVR-M (LINPH, USSR).
Experimental data were taken at increments of
