Sodium-alkaline earth-silicate glasses, of nominal molar composition 16Na2O–10RO–74SiO2(R = Ca, (Ca,Mg) and Mg) doped with 0.5 wt.% of Fe2O3, were studied by UV–Visible–NIR absorption spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) at X- and Q-band to understand the structural control of Fe3+optical absorption properties as a function of iron redox and glass composition. By comparing with a set of[4]Fe3+,[5]Fe3+and[6]Fe3+crystalline references, optical absorption spectra indicate the presence of 5-fold Fe3+in addition to a majority of tetrahedral Fe3+. The combination of Q- and X-band EPR data shows Fe3+partition among isolated, distributed sites and Fe-rich clusters, providing unique insight into the distortion of isolated Fe3+sites. It demonstrates also the peculiar character of the residual Fe3+sites that exist in reduced glasses. Changing Ca to Mg increases the amount of tetrahedral Fe3+sites and decreases their distortion. The presence of Mg also reduces the amount of isolated rhombic Fe3+sites and promotes the formation of clusters. These clusters confirm the non-homogeneous structure of silicate glasses, as well as the preference of Fe3+for a more calcic than magnesian environment in sodic (Ca,Mg) glasses.
