Stress-enhanced ion diffusion at the vicinity of a crack tip as evidenced by atomic force microscopy in silicate glasses
F. Celarie, M. Ciccotti, C. Marliere
The slow advance of a crack in sodo-silicate glasses was studied at nanometer scale by in situ and real time atomic force microscopy (AFM) in a well controlled atmosphere. An enhan…

Real-time observation of non-equilibrium liquid condensate confined at tensile crack tips in oxide glasses
L. Wondraczek, M. Ciccotti, A. Dittmar +3
Since crack propagation in oxide materials at low crack velocities is partly determined by chemical corrosion, proper knowledge of the crack tip chemistry is crucial for understand…
