A scientific discovery by researchers at Tel Aviv University's School of Chemistry offers a new perspective on a ...

Recent research led by the University of Trento reveals that fundamental atomic vibrations remain unchanged also in ...

Glass, as an amorphous solid, exhibits a rich tapestry of atomic arrangements that govern its structure and dynamic properties. Recent investigations have illuminated the interplay between short-range ...

A class of glass that cannot crystallize, even given infinite time, is forcing physicists to rethink some of the oldest assumptions about how disordered materials behave. Built from theoretical models ...

There’s some nifty research from the University of Bayreuth, together with partners in China and the U.S., on creating supremely tough aluminosilicate glass that boasts an unusual structure. The image ...

Since 1948, scientists have wondered: If you could cool a glass over an extremely long period of time, would it eventually form an amorphous structure that behaves exactly like a crystalline lattice—a ...

The best way to understand glass is to understand how it is made. The first step to make glass requires heating up a mixture of minerals – often soda ash, limestone and quartz sand – until they melt ...
