A collaborative group from Tohoku University and Johns Hopkins University have provided valuable insights into the glass transition.
When a liquid is cooled rapidly, it gains viscosity and eventually becomes a rigid solid glass. The point at which it does so is known as the glass transition.
But the exact physics behind the glass transition, and the nature of glass in general, still pose many questions for scientists.
Metallic Glasses (MGs) are highly sought after since they combine the flexibility of plastic with the strength of steel. They are amorphous materials with a disordered atomic structure and exhibit unique and divergent thermodynamic and dynamic characteristics, especially when approaching the glass-transition temperature.
