Plasticity-induced structural anisotropy of silica glass
Cindy Linn Rountree, Damien Vandembroucq, Mehdi Talamali +2
Amorphous silica density at ambient pressure is known to depend on thermal history (through the quenching rate) but also, at room temperature, on the maximum pressure applied in th…

Nanoscale damage during fracture in silica glass
Daniel Bonamy, Silke Prades, Cindy Rountree +5
We report here atomic force microscopy experiments designed to uncover the nature of failure mechanisms occuring within the process zone at the tip of a crack propagating into a si…
