Chemical Species-Dependent Structural Modification of Vitreous SiO₂ by Monovale

A dataset from figshare by Lindsay M. Harrison, last updated in March 2026. It contains results from density measurements, resonance ultrasound spectroscopy, gigahertz ultrasonic interferometry, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations. The data compares the effects of fluorine, chlorine, and hydroxyl dopants on the elastic moduli, wave speeds, and structural properties of vitreous silica.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between dopant concentration and elastic moduli based on measured density and wave speed data.
• Analyzing structural changes in silica networks based on tetrahedral ring population data from spectroscopy.
• Comparing the 'buttressing' effect of chlorine versus fluorine doping on material stiffness using elasticity data.
• Investigating the impact of volatile species on Rayleigh scattering in fused silica based on structural property correlations.

Strengths

• Data is derived from multiple experimental techniques (RUS, GHz interferometry, Raman, FTIR) and molecular dynamics simulations.
• Directly compares three distinct monovalent anion dopants (F, Cl, OH) on a common material system.
• File size is 17.6 KB, indicating a compact and focused dataset.

Limitations

• Row count and specific column definitions are unknown, requiring manual inspection after download.
• The dataset's 17.6 KB size suggests a limited scope, likely containing summary or key result data rather than raw measurements.
