Abstract

We report the first comparison of coherent inelastic neutron and depolarized Raman scattering spectra in the energy range 0.5 meV to 10 meV of a network glass B2O3. The density of states, deduced from the neutron measurements, is divided into a sound wave-like part and an additional contribution. While both parts contribute to the total density of states, only the additional part seems to contribute to Raman scattering. The results can be understood in terms of the soft potential model.
