A series of glasses have been prepared in the binary xCaO – (1 – x)Al2O3, (x = 0.45, 0.50, 0.55, 0.60, 0.65, 0.70, 0.75 and 0.80) by the aerodynamic levitation technique combined with CO2-laser melting. By utilizing Raman spectroscopy, we systematically followed the compositional dependence of the observed low-frequency vibrations, namely the Boson Peak. It was found that the BP frequency is systematically dependent on altering CaO content, exhibiting a minimum close to the eutectic composition for the binary Calcium Aluminate glassy system. This characteristic was also observed in the elucidation of fractal dimensionality in Calcium Aluminate glasses. By utilizing the fracton model based on low-frequency vibrations, we found that the compositional dependence of the fractal dimension is similar to the one observed for the BP and that the eutectic point can serve as a point not only for investigating relevant structural changes occurring in glasses, but also for changes manifested in the low-frequency regime. The results are discussed in the context of relevant theories of the field.

The composition and partial pressures of molecular species in vapor over melts of CaO-Al2O3 at 1833-2033 K were determined by Knudsen effusion-mass spectrometry. Negative deviations from ideality were observed for the system. The thermodynamic properties of CaO-Al2O3 melts were expressed by analytical dependences as functions of the temperature and concentration of components of the system.
