Ideal glass transitions in thin films: An energy landscape perspective
Thomas M. Truskett & Venkat Ganesan Department of Chemical Engineering and Institute for Theoretical Chemistry, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712. Abstract We introduce a mean-field model for the potential energy landscape of a thin fluid film confined between parallel substrates. The model predicts how the number of accessible basins on the energy landscape and, consequently,...
متن کاملThe potential energy landscape of the ±J Ising spin glass
We calculate ‘inherent structures’ (configurations corresponding to local potential energy minima) in the ±J Ising spin glass over a wide range of temperature T in two and three dimensions. We find that the T -dependence of the average value of the inherent-structure energy E is strikingly similar to that shown recently for a glass-forming liquids. E decreases with T only weakly at high T , but...
متن کاملPotential energy landscape of a model glass former: thermodynamics, anharmonicities, and finite size effects.
It is possible to formulate the thermodynamics of a glass forming system in terms of the properties of inherent structures, which correspond to the minima of the potential energy and build up the potential energy landscape in the high-dimensional configuration space. In this work we quantitatively apply this general approach to a simulated model glass-forming system. We systematically vary the ...
متن کاملAging effects manifested in the potential-energy landscape of a model glass former.
We present molecular dynamics simulations of the binary Kob-Andersen Lennard-Jones model, a model glass former, and consider the distributions of inherent energies and metabasins during aging. In addition to the typical protocol of performing a temperature jump from a high temperature to a low destination temperature, we consider the temporal evolution of the energy distributions after an "up-j...
متن کاملCrossover to potential energy landscape dominated dynamics in a model glass-forming liquid
An equilibrated model glass-forming liquid is studied by mapping successive configurations produced by molecular dynamics simulation onto a time series of inherent structures ~local minima in the potential energy!. Using this ‘‘inherent dynamics’’ approach we find direct numerical evidence for the long held view that below a crossover temperature, Tx , the liquid’s dynamics can be separated int...
