Abstract
113Cd magic-angle spinning (MAS)and static NMR spectra were measured of fourteen kinds of chlorocadmate glasses and eight kinds of chlorocadmate crystals with known structures to reveal the chlorine coordination environments around Cd2+ in the glasses in detail. At first the relationship between NMR parameters such as isotropic chemical shift δiso, chemical shift anisotropy Δδand asymmetry parameter θ and the chlorine coordination environments around Cd2+ in the crystals was established. Then the chlorine coordination environments around Cd2+ in the glasses were discussed based on the relationship found in the chlorocadmate crystals.
