Correlation between vibrational anomalies and emergent anharmonicity of the local potential energy landscape in metallic glasses

Zeng-Yu Yang et al.

Summary: The boson peak, a universal feature in both disordered and crystalline materials, has an inverse relationship with the activation energy of excitations in the potential energy landscape. Larger boson peaks are associated with shallower basins, lower activation barriers, and emergent anharmonic sectors in the PEL.

Low-Temperature Heat Capacity Anomalies in Ordered and Disordered Phases of Normal and Deuterated Thiophene

Y. Miyazaki et al.

Summary: By measuring the specific heat of normal and deuterated thiophene, we found a large heat capacity bump at low temperatures for both stable and metastable phases, deviating significantly from the expected Debye temperature behavior. This anomaly, typically known as a Boson-peak in glassy crystals, is not exclusive to disordered materials.

Boson-peak-like anomaly caused by transverse phonon softening in strain glass

Shuai Ren et al.

Summary: In this study, researchers discovered a low-temperature feature in strain glass that is similar to the well-known boson peak anomaly in structural glasses, but cannot be explained by existing mechanisms. This anomaly is caused by the phonon softening of the non-transforming matrix surrounding martensitic domains, and it verifies a recent theoretical model without assumptions of disorder. This finding may provide fresh insights into understanding the nature of glassy states and associated vibrational properties.

Understanding the scaling of boson peak through insensitivity of elastic heterogeneity to bending rigidity in polymer glasses

Naoya Tomoshige et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the vibrational properties of polymer glasses are influenced by the global elastic properties rather than the bending rigidity of the constituent polymer chains. The spatial heterogeneity of the local shear modulus distribution is found to be insensitive to changes in bending rigidity, indicating that the vibrational and acoustic properties of polymer glasses are solely controlled by the global shear modulus.

Phase Diagram and Cation Dynamics of Mixed MA1-xFAxPbBr3 Hybrid Perovskites

Mantas Simenas et al.

Summary: The study investigates the impact of mixing molecular cations on the structural phase transitions, stability, and dielectric properties of hybrid lead halide perovskites. The results show a significant suppression of structural phase transitions and stabilization of the cubic phase upon mixing, as well as a substantial decrease in room-temperature dielectric permittivity with increasing FA cations. Weak signatures of a dipolar glass phase were also observed for intermediate mixing levels.

Heat capacity anomalies of the molecular crystal 1-fluoro-adamantane at low temperatures

Daria Szewczyk et al.

Summary: In this study, a comprehensive low-temperature experimental and theoretical investigation of 1-fluoro-adamantane was conducted, revealing a continuous disorder-disorder phase transition at 180K and fractional fluorine occupancy in the low-temperature tetragonal phase. The findings suggest that the disorder in fluorine occupancy leads to the appearance of glassy features in the specific heat and vibrational density of states, with low-energy optical modes identified as the main contributing factor. The study provides new insights into the origins of the boson peak in disordered materials and expands the understanding of glassy-like heat capacity features in molecular crystals.

Random matrix approach to the boson peak and Ioffe-Regel criterion in amorphous solids

D. A. Conyuh et al.

Summary: The study uses a random matrix approach to investigate the general vibrational properties of stable amorphous solids with translational invariance, employing the correlated Wishart ensemble. Analytical and numerical methods are both utilized to obtain the vibrational density of states and dynamical structure factor. The research highlights the relationship between the Ioffe-Regel frequency and the vibrational density of states under a finite interaction radius.
