Dynamic relaxation is an intrinsic and universal feature of glasses and enables fluctuation
and dissipation to occur, which induces plentiful behaviour, maintains equilibrium, and …

The rational development of fast-ion-conducting solid electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium-
ion batteries requires understanding the key structural and chemical principles that give …

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 …

To develop structure–property relationships for cross-linked thermosetting polymers, it is
crucial to better understand key factors that control their segmental dynamics and …

Plastic deformation and relaxation dynamics are two major topics in glass physics.
Secondary (β) relaxation has been assumed to be a relevant plastic mechanism in …

We provide a perspective on polymer glass formation, with an emphasis on models in which
the fluid entropy and collective particle motion dominate the theoretical description and data …

The emergence of the solid state in glass-forming materials upon cooling is accompanied by
changes in both thermodynamic and viscoelastic properties and by a precipitous drop in …

We investigate the fast β-and Johari–Goldstein (JG) β-relaxation processes, along with the
elastic scattering response of glass-forming (GF) liquids and the boson peak, in a simulated …

Although crystalline materials are often conceptualized as involving a static lattice
configuration of particles, it has recently become appreciated that string-like collective …

Monomer chemical structure and architecture represent the most important characteristics of
polymers that affect basic molecular parameters (such as the microscopic cohesive energy …
