Dielectric Properties of Tellurite Glasses

Abstract

IN a previous communication, Stanworth has described the properties of glasses containing a high percentage of tellurium dioxide1. Some data were presented on the optical and dielectric properties of several of such glasses. The purpose of this communication is to record the results of further dielectric measurements on tellurite glasses, carried out at the Physical Laboratory of the National Defence Research Council of the Netherlands (The Hague), in close co-operation with Mr. Stanworth of the British Thomson-Houston Co., Ltd., Rugby, where the samples for this investigation were prepared.
