Amorphous silicon structures generated using a moment tensor potential and the activation relaxation technique nouveau
Karim Zongo, Hao Sun, Claudiane Ouellet-Plamondon +2
Preparing realistic atom-scale models of amorphous silicon (a-Si) is a decades-old condensed matter physics challenge. Herein, we combine the Activation Relaxation Technique nouvea…
Is the Future of Materials Amorphous? Challenges and Opportunities in Simulations of Amorphous Materials
Ata Madanchi, Emna Azek, Karim Zongo +3
Amorphous solids form an enormous and underutilized class of materials. In order to drive the discovery of new useful amorphous materials further we need to achieve a closer conver…
Internal mechanical dissipation mechanisms in amorphous silicon
Carl Lévesque, Sjoerd Roorda, François Schiettekatte +1
Using the Activation-Relaxation Technique-nouveau, we search for two-level systems (TLSs) in models of amorphous silicon (a-Si). The TLSs are mechanisms related to internal mechani…
Self-organized criticality in the intermediate phase of rigidity percolation
M. -A. Briere, M. V. Chubynsky, Normand Mousseau
Experimental results for covalent glasses have highlighted the existence of a new self-organized phase due to the tendency of glass networks to minimize internal stress. Recently,…
Self-organization with equilibration: a model for the intermediate phase in rigidity percolation
M. V. Chubynsky, M. -A. Briere, N. Mousseau
Recent experimental results for covalent glasses suggest the existence of an intermediate phase attributed to the self-organization of the glass network resulting from the tendency…
Binary continuous random networks
Normand Mousseau, G. T. Barkema
Many properties of disordered materials can be understood by looking at idealized structural models, in which the strain is as small as is possible in the absence of long-range ord…
