Emergent facilitation by random constraints in a facilitated random walk model of glass

Leo S. I. Lam, Hai-Yao Deng, Wei-Bing Zhang +6

The physics of glass has been a significant topic of interest for decades. Dynamical facilitation is widely believed to be an important characteristic of glassy dynamics, but the p…

Surface mobility gradient and emergent facilitation in glassy films

Qiang Zhai, Xin-Yuan Gao, Chun-Shing Lee +5

Confining glassy polymer into films can substantially modify their local and film-averaged properties. We present a lattice model of film geometry with void-mediated facilitation b…

Distinguishable-particle Glassy Crystal: the simplest molecular model of glass

Leo S. I. Lam, Gautham Gopinath, Zichen Zhao +7

The nature of glassy dynamics and the glass transition are long-standing problems under active debate. In the presence of a structural disorder widely believed to be an essential c…

The distinguishable-particle lattice model of glasses in three dimensions

Bo Li, Chun-Shing Lee, Xin-Yuan Gao +2

The nature of glassy states in realistic finite dimensions is still under fierce debate. Lattice models can offer valuable insights and facilitate deeper theoretical understanding.…

Towards Relating Fragile-To-Strong Transition to Fragile Glass

Chin-Yuan Ong, Chun-Shing Lee, Xin-Yuan Gao +4

Glass formers are in general classified as strong or fragile depending on whether their relaxation rates follow Arrhenius or super-Arrhenius temperature dependence. There are howev…

Kauzmann Paradox: a crossover due to diminishing local excitations

Xin-Yuan Gao, Chin-Yuan Ong, Chun-Shing Lee +3

The configurational entropy of supercooled liquids extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann temperature, causing a crisis called the Kauzmann paradox. Here, using a class of multicompo…
