| Abstract: | Glasses containing lead, bismuth, or antimony oxides or combinations of these become conducting after several hours’ reduction in hydrogen. The electronic surface conductivity is both stable and reproducible. The magnitude of the conductivity depends on the nature and amounts of the reducible oxides, the temperatures at which reduction is carried out, and the electrical influence of the nonreduced portions of the glasses. |
