Abstract
Alloys of a mixture of MgO and SiO2 oxides are obtained using radiant heating. X-ray phase analysis shows that the mixture alloys are multiphase crystalline structures and solid solutions; they contain a glass phase and traces of the original oxides. For the mole: mole concentration, forsterite is identified in the composition of the composite material. It is found that films of an alloy of MgO and SiO2 deposited on the surface of glass and silicon wafers exhibit high mechanical strength and adhesion; they are transparent in the range of sensitivity of solar cells and can be used as antireflection coatings.
