Low-frequency modes in vitreous silica

Abstract

Measurements of the elastic and inelastic neutron scattering from vitreous silica in the frequency range 0.3 to 4 THz and with scattering vectors in the range 0.2 to 5.3 A${\r{}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$ are analyzed in conjunction with heat-capacity measurements on the same samples to provide a microscopic description of low-frequency vibrational modes. The results show that additional harmonic excitations coexist with sound waves below 1 THz, and that these excitations correspond to relative rotation of ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{4}$ tetrahedra.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
