Summary on Grant Application Form
It is proposed to perform large scale MD simulations (approx ten throusand atoms) of the materials Si, As2S3, and AS-S-Ge-I (the latter two for the first time) at and above the glass transition, with the aim of understanding the nature of the glass transition for strong glass-forming systems.
