Nov 13, 2012: Clear view into glass - scientists analyze the atomic structure of amorphous silica (Nanowerk News) We can look through glass, but what glass itself looks like on the inside has so far ...
June 8, 2021 — The detailed structure of glass has always been a mystery in science. A research team has now discovered that the amorphous and crystalline metallic glass have the same structural ...
A research team led by SUTD has created nanoscale glass structures with near-perfect reflectance, overturning long-held assumptions about what low-index materials can do in photonics.
Investigations of the surface of a two-dimensional glass film have disclosed the atomic structure of amorphous and crystalline silica and the transition between the two forms. The materials research ...
Unlike water, silica (SiO 2) does not freeze easily.When liquid silica cools, its atoms fail to arrange into an ordered crystal. Instead, as temperature decreases, the liquid state survives even ...
