We applied the recently developed Generalized Langevin Equation (GLE) approach for dielectric response of liquids and glasses to link the vibrational density of states (VDOS) to the dielectric response of a model orientational glass (OG).…
We compute the dielectric response of glasses starting from a microscopic system-bath Hamiltonian of the Zwanzig-Caldeira-Leggett type and using an ansatz from kinetic theory for the memory function in the resulting Generalized Langevin…
We investigate the vibrational density of states (vDOS) in harmonic approximation of a binary mixture of colloidal patchy particles with two and three patches for different relative compositions $x_2$. At low temperature, this system forms…
An atomic-scale theory of the viscoelastic response of metallic glasses is derived from first principles, using a Zwanzig-Caldeira-Leggett system-bath Hamiltonian as a starting point within the framework of nonaffine linear response to…
Dielectric measurements on molecular liquids just above the glass transition indicate that alpha relaxation is characterized by a generic high-frequency loss varying as $\omega^{-1/2}$, whereas deviations from this come from one or more…
The relaxation dynamics and the vibrational spectra of amorphous solids, such as metal alloys, have been intensely investigated as well separated topics in the past. The aim of this review is to summarize recent results in both these areas…
Amorphous solids or glasses are known to exhibit stretched-exponential decay over broad time intervals in several of their macroscopic observables: intermediate scattering function, dielectric relaxation modulus, time-elastic modulus etc.…
The structure and vibrational density of states (VDOS) of polymer glasses are investigated using numerical simulations based on the classical Kremer-Grest bead-spring model. We focus on the roles of chain length and bending stiffness, the…
A thorough characterization of the {\gamma}, {\beta} and glass phases of deuterated 1,1,2,2 Tetrachloroethane (C2D2Cl4) via Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance and Molecular Dynamic Simulations (MDS) is reported. The presence of molecular…
Published dielectric and shear data of six molecular glass formers and one polymer are evaluated in terms of a spectrum of thermally activated processes, with the same barrier density for the retardation spectrum of shear and dielectrics.…
Experimental investigation as well as theoretical calculations, of the Fe-partial phonon density-of-states (DOS) for nominally Fe_52.5Cr_47.5 alloy having (a) alpha- and (b) sigma-phase structure were carried out. The former at sector 3-ID…
Glasses are structurally disordered solids that host, in addition to crystalline-like phonons, vibrational excitations with no direct phononic counterpart. A long-standing universal signature is the excess vibrational density of…
We have determined the vibrational properties of a sodium tetrasilicate (Na$_{2}$Si$_{4}$O$_{9}$) glass model generated by molecular dynamics simulations. The study has been carried out using a classical valence force fields approach as…
We present a Density Functional Theory (DFT) study of the structural and electronic properties of bare rutile VO$_{2}$(110) surfaces and its oxygen-rich terminations. We discuss the performance of various DFT functionals, including PBE,…
Within the mode-coupling theory (MCT) for the evolution of structural relaxation in glass-forming liquids, correlation functions and susceptibility spectra are calculated characterizing the rotational dynamics of a top-down symmetric…
We address the relaxation dynamics in hydrogen-bonded super-cooled liquids near the glass transition, measured via Broad-Band Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS). We propose a theory based on decomposing the relaxation of the macroscopic dipole…
We present a consistent picture of the respective role of density and temperature in the viscous slowing down of glassforming liquids and polymers. Specifically, based in part upon a new analysis of simulation and experimental data on…
A detailed investigation of the charge-ordered charge-transfer salt \delta-(EDT-TTF-CONMe$_{2}$)$_{2}$Br by thermal-expansion measurements and dielectric spectroscopy reveals three dynamic processes of relaxational character. The slowest…
The trajectory deflection and gravitational-electromagnetic dual lensing (GEL) of charged signal in general charged static and spherically symmetric spacetimes are considered in this work. We showed that the perturbative approach previously…
We show that a {\em vibrational instability} of the spectrum of weakly interacting quasi-local harmonic modes creates the maximum in the inelastic scattering intensity in glasses, the Boson peak. The instability, limited by anharmonicity,…
