Amorphous materials such as glass are solids whose internal structure lacks a repeating pattern. Their molecules are arranged ...

Why do glass and other amorphous materials deform more easily in some regions than in others? A research team from the University of Osaka, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and ...

Researchers uncovered how soft regions in amorphous silicon mix order and disorder, offering new insights for designing stronger amorphous materials. Persistence diagram obtained from the structure of ...

For a long time, it was thought that amorphous solids do not selectively absorb light because of their disordered atomic structure. A new study disproves this theory and shows that amorphous solids ...

Recently，Prof. LIU Lei's group from Peking University，the user of the Steady-state High Magnetic Field Experimental Facility (SHMFF), Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of Chinese Academy of ...

Persistence diagram obtained from the structure of amorphous silicon, examples of the local ring structures corresponding to each point in the diagram, and representative structures including atoms ...
