This renewal award will continue support of the Rensselaer                      Polytechnic Institute MRG glass science group.  Its research is                 focused on chemical and microstructural aspects of glass                        stability.  Topics of a chemical nature include diffusion of                    water into glass, dissolution rates of glass in aqueous                         solutions, rates of attack in seawater, stability of fluoride and               chalcogenide IR transmitting glasses, and defects in ion-                       implanted silica glass.  Additional research deals with glass                   structure:  influence of dissolved volatiles on phase separation                and phase stability, structural relaxation processes, light                     scattering and phonon attenuation mechanisms, behavior under high               pressure, and effects of nitrogen doping.  The collaborative,                   multi-investigator group includes four faculty from materials                   engineering, one from physics, and one from geology.
