Abstract :
The Chalcogenide glasses were fabricated by melting and quenching techniques in the SeGe system at the presence of 1mol% Ga and 3, 5, and 7mol% Sn. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis was conducted to extract the heat treatment of the samples. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis was also performed in a range of 216µm. The Glass samples were heattreated at 450°C for 110h. The precipitated nanoparticles were observed using a Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM). The crystal size was reported in the range of 1001000nm. The precipitated phases were identified using Xray Diffraction (XRD) analysis on GlassCeramics powder. The increase in hardness of the GlassCeramics was reported in the range of 200250Kg.mm2.
