Chalcogenide glasses (ChG) has emerged as important materials due to their potential
applications in infrared optics for communication, imaging, limiting, remote sensing and …

Measuring the fracture toughness (KIc) of glasses still remains a difficult task, raising
experimental and theoretical problems as well. The available methods to estimate KIc are …

Despite the usage of both experimental and topological methods, realizing a rapid and
accurate measurement of the onset temperature (T g) of Ge x Se 1− x glass transition …

Thanks to their unique optical properties Ge–Sb–S–Se–Te amorphous chalcogenide
materials and compounds offer tremendous opportunities of applications, in particular in …

This work studies photostimulated diffusion of silver, enhanced by a plasmon field, into
GeSe 2 thin films. To ensure the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) at the …

The topological ordering of the network structure in vitreous Ge x Se1− x was investigated
across most of the glass-forming region (0≤ x≤ 0.4) by using high-resolution neutron …

Structure of glasses in the pseudobinary system Ga2Se3–GeSe2 with Ga2Se3 content
ranging from 6.3 to 30 mol% is investigated using a combination of Raman and multinuclear …

Stable glasses are successfully synthesized in the TeO 2-GeO 2-ZnO system at 850° C by
the melt-quenching method and the glass forming domain is determined in the TeO 2-rich …

Network glasses are composed of three topological phases: flexible, intermediate, and
stressed-rigid. Intermediate Phase (IP) glasses form compact, rigid, and stress-free networks …

From a fundamental viewpoint, glasses are out of equilibrium systems, so that concepts and
techniques from statistical mechanics cannot be applied in a straightforward fashion given …
