Glass-forming systems have long fascinated researchers due to their unique transition from a fluid to a disordered solid state. Central to understanding these systems is the study of relaxation ...

Pure quartz glass is highly transparent and resistant to thermal, physical, and chemical impacts. These are optimum prerequisites for use in optics, data technology or medical engineering. For ...

Glass forming is performed in the tin bath area through a strong thermal kinetic process to achieve the required thickness and glass surface quality. The extraction of the glass ribbon from the tin ...

Researchers studied the glass-forming ability of two simple systems, establishing the 'thermodynamic interface penalty,' which is an indicator of the extent of the structural difference between a ...

Physically speaking, glass is a rather unusual material. Most solid materials are significantly ‘ordered’ with their constituent molecules or atoms in a regular arrangement, repeating patterns called ...

The glass we're most familiar with is made from silicon dioxide, but materials like boron, polymers and metals have also been used. Now, an international team of scientists have developed a brand new ...

Everyone is familiar with glass—from putting on eyeglasses, pushing open the window, standing in front of a mirror, to holding a water glass. Glass is ubiquitous in nature and essential to human life.

Corning Incorporated has long been a leader in materials science, known for pushing the boundaries of glass and ceramic technologies. Recently, the company introduced a groundbreaking material called ...
