Periodic glass formation system
... the melt to form a glassy network. The dependence of these parameters on the charge of the nucleus of the elements proves the primary and secondary periodicity of the tendency to glass formation in the case of sulfide, selenide, telluride, oxide and halide systems. The electronic configuration model turned out to be applicable to diamond-like and metallic systems. On the basis of the proposed theoretical concepts and data on the regions of glass formation of binary and ternary systems, a ...
