Viscosity of Silica and Doped Silica Melts: Evidence for a Crossover Temperature
John C. Mauro, Charles R. Kurkjian, Prabhat K. Gupta +1
Silica is known as the archetypal strong liquid, exhibiting an Arrhenius viscosity curve with a high glass transition temperature and constant activation energy. However, given the…
Ion Exchange in Silicate Glasses: Physics of Ion Concentration, Residual Stress, and Refractive Index Profiles
Guglielmo Macrelli, Arun K. Varshneya, John C. Mauro
A systematic review of main physical effects generated by ion exchange in silicate glasses is presented. Ion concentration distributions, residual stress profiles, and refractive i…
Prediction of Glass Elasticity from Free Energy Density of Topological Constraints
Collin J. Wilkinson, Qiuju Zheng, Liping Huang +1
Despite the critical importance of the elastic properties of modern materials, there is not a singular model that can predict the modulus to an accuracy needed for industrial glass…
Rebuttal to Schmelzer and Tropin: Glass Transition, Crystallization of Glass-Forming Melts, and Entropy
Edgar D. Zanotto, John C. Mauro
In a recent article, Schmelzer and Tropin [Entropy 20 [2] 103 (2018)] presented an unfounded, confusing critique of several aspects of modern glass science. Relying on pre-Socratic…
Cooling-Rate Effects in Sodium Silicate Glasses: Bridging the Gap between Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Experiments
Xin Li, Weiying Song, Kai Yang +7
Although molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are commonly used to predict the structure and properties of glasses, they are intrinsically limited to short time scales, necessitatin…
Nano-Ductility in Silicate Glasses is Driven by Topological Heterogeneity
Bu Wang, Yingtian Yu, Mengyi Wang +2
The existence of nanoscale ductility during the fracture of silicate glasses remains controversial. Here, based on molecular dynamics simulations coupled with topological constrain…
