Polarized and depolarized Raman spectra of alkali germanate glasses are given, together with Raman powder spectra of the crystalline compounds Li2O · 2 GeO2; 3 Li2O · 8 GeO2; 2 Li2O· 9 GeO2; Li2O · 7 GeO2; 2 Na2O · 9 GeO2; K2O · 2 GeO2; K2O · 4 GeO2and K2O · 8 GeO2.The alkali germanate glasses:xA2O(1−x) GeO2are studied in the composition range 0 <x< 0.333. The vibrational modes observed in the high energy range of the Raman spectra of the crystalline compounds are interpreted in terms of symmetrical and antisymmetrical O-Ge-O and Ge-O−stretch vibrations. The molecular structure of the germanate glasses is deduced from a comparison of the Raman spectra of the glasses with those of the crystalline compounds, together with a study of the polarization properties of the glass spectra.It is observed that 6-coordinated Ge atoms occur in a network structure which resembles the structures occurring in the crystalline compounds 2 Li2O · 9 GeO2and 2 Na2O · 9 GeO2.In the region of 0.18 <x< 0.33 it is found that tetrahedra with one non-bridging oxygen atom are formed. These tetrahedra are probably present in a network as occurs in the crystalline digermanates Li2O · 2 GeO2and K2O · 2 GeO2.
