Revealing the effect of medium-range structure on silicate glass hardness

Ying Shi et al.

Summary: Atomic structure plays a crucial role in determining the physical properties of materials, including glasses. In this study, the researchers investigated the structure-property relationships in glasses by manipulating their density and hardness through thermal-annealing and pressure-quenching processes. Neutron total-scattering patterns were used to analyze the structural changes, and the results indicated that medium-range structure changes were closely correlated with the properties, specifically hardness.

Ring compaction as a mechanism of densification in amorphous silica

Philip S. Salmon et al.

Summary: The structure of permanently densified silica glass is investigated using neutron and x-ray diffraction and atomistic models. The focus is on the ordering on an intermediate length scale that originates from the formation of n-rings. The densification process affects this ordering, as evidenced by changes to the first sharp diffraction peak. However, the distribution of ring sizes does not directly influence the form of this peak. Instead, a significant contribution to glass densification is from compaction of the n-rings, which is quantified by the radius of gyration and lifetime of the rings.

Topological descriptor of thermal conductivity in amorphous Si

Emi Minamitani et al.

Summary: This study addresses the long-standing problem of quantifying the correlation between complex structures of amorphous materials and their physical properties. By combining topological data analysis, machine learning, and molecular dynamics simulations, the researchers were able to determine the relationship between the medium-range order (MRO) in amorphous Si and its thermal conductivity. The results provide a potential avenue for controlling material characteristics through the topology of nanostructures.

Origins of structural and electronic transitions in disordered silicon

Volker L. Deringer et al.

Summary: This study investigates the structural transitions of amorphous silicon under increasing external pressure, revealing a three-step transformation sequence and demonstrating the transient nature of the VHDA phase, which rapidly nucleates crystallites. The machine learning model for electronic density of states provides support for the onset of metallicity during VHDA formation and subsequent crystallization, showcasing a machine learning-driven approach to predictive materials modeling.

Four Generations of High-Dimensional Neural Network Potentials

Joerg Behler

Summary: Machine learning potentials have become an important tool in atomistic simulations over the past 25 years. The development of high-dimensional neural network potentials (HDNNPs) has allowed for the simulation of large systems with thousands of atoms, with continuous advancements leading to the emergence of fourth-generation HDNNPs. Despite some limitations, the future outlook for HDNNPs is promising with potential for further developments.
