The local structure obtained from calcium K -edge XAFS experiments in CaO-B 2 O 3 glasses is described. The average coordination number of oxygen around Ca 2+ ions and the mean distance for Ca-O are found to be approximately 6 and 2.40∼2.41Å, respectively. The Ca 2+ ions have a disordered octahedral geometry and a strong preference to reside in vicinity of negatively charged non-bridging and bridging oxygen in the large cages of the B-O network structure. The XAFS results are in good agreement with MD simulation results.
