Amorphous solids, which also include rubber, glass and plastics, are a class of matter. But despite their routine applications in people’s day-to-day lives, amorphous solids have traditionally presented a challenge to researchers.
At left, an experimental 3D atomic model of a metallic glass nanoparticle, 8 nanometers in diameter. Right, the 3D atomic packing of a supercluster within the structure, with differently colored balls representing different types of atoms….
