At the molecular level, glass looks like a liquid. But an artificial neural network has picked up on hidden structure in its molecules that may explain why glass is rigid like a solid. Most materials ...

This image shows the molecular configuration of a simulated ultrastable glass. The purple and greenish-blue spheres represent two different types of atoms (phosphorus and nickel, respectively) that ...

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

Supramolecular glass is a non-covalently cross-linked amorphous material exhibiting exceptional optical behavior and distinctive intrinsic structural features. Like its gel counterpart, supramolecular ...
