Residual Entropy of Glasses and the Third Law Expression
Koun Shirai
The third law of thermodynamics dictates that the entropy of materials becomes zero as temperature () approaches zero. Contrarily, glass and other similar materials exhibit nonz…

First-principles study on the specific heat of glass at glass transition with a case study on glycerol
Koun Shirai, Kota Watanabe, Hiroyoshi Momida
The standard method to determine the transition temperature (Tg) of glass transition is the jump in the specific heat. Despite this importance, standard theory for this jump is lac…
