However, in amorphous solids, the lack of long-range order makes detecting defect-like regions far more challenging. While several approaches have been proposed to identify soft, defect-like regions ...

Why do glass and other amorphous materials deform more easily in some regions than in others? A research team from the University of Osaka, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and ...

For a long time, it was thought that amorphous solids do not selectively absorb light because of their disordered atomic structure. A new study disproves this theory and shows that amorphous solids ...
