Abstract

The present invention provides a glass composition suitable for producing a poling effect. This glass composition includes 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 0.1 to 40 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , and a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0. As the univalent metal ions are suitable Li, Na, K, Cs, Ag, Cu, and Au.

Claims (8)

1. A glass functional product, obtained by poling a glass composition comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 0.1 to 40 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0 and the univalent metal ions are selected from a group consisting of Li, Na, K, Cs, and Au.

2. A glass frictional product, comprising a glass composition comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 0.1 to 40 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0 and the univalent metal ions are selected from a group consisting of Li, Na, K, Cs, and Au, and having a frozen-in electric field in a part of the glass composition.

3. A glass composition for poling, comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 67 to 75 mol % of SiO 2 , 9 to 25 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0 and the univalent metal ions are selected from a group consisting of Cs and Au.

4. The glass composition for poling according to claim 3 , comprising, in terms of mol %: 0.001% to 0.5% of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof; 9 to 25% of Al 2 O 3 ; 67 to 75% of SiO 2; 0 to 15% of B 2 O 3; 0 to 25% of MgO; 0 to 25% of CaQ; 0 to 25% of SrO; 0 to 25% of BaO; and 0 to 25% of ZnO, wherein the sum of MgO, CaQ, SrO, BaO and ZnO is 0 to 25 mol %.

5. The glass composition for poling according to claim 3 , comprising substantially no B 2 O 3 .

6. A glass functional product, obtained by poling a glass composition comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 9 to 25 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 , to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0.

7. A glass functional product, comprising a glass composition comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 9 to 25 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0, and having a frozen-in electric field in a part of the glass composition.

8. A glass composition for poling, comprising 0.001 to 0.5 mol % of univalent metal ions in terms of oxide thereof, 67 to 70 mol % of SiO 2 , 9 to 25 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , and 0 to 15 mol % of B 2 O 3 , wherein a ratio of the number of moles of Al 2 O 3 to a sum of moles of oxide in terms of which the univalent metal ions is expressed is at least 1.0 and the univalent metal ions are selected from a group consisting of Li, Na, K. Cs, and Au.
