Fig. 12

The dot lines represent the linear region for irradiated sample and dashed lines for un-irradiated samples. For the pristine glass, the changes in the Si-related structure are tenuous, and the change of Si peak are even less pronounced at higher Zr contents. After irradiation, the Si peak appears due to the leaching of Boron. Meanwhile, differences in rates of Si peak change imply differences in ZNBS glass compositions.
