We review the current state of academic research in glass science in the United States. Our
analysis is based on an evaluation of the number of journal articles published across the …

The field of glass science is quickly maturing from a purely empirical science to one built
upon rigorous fundamental physics. These advancements offer an unprecedented level of …

Functional glasses play a critical role in current and developing technologies. These
materials have traditionally been designed empirically through trial-and-error …

Addition of alumina to sodium silicate glasses considerably improves the mechanical
properties and chemical durability and changes other properties such as ionic conductivity …

The addition of MgO to aluminosilicate glasses usually leads to significant changes for many
macroscopic properties. The underlying microscopic structure origin of this effect, however …

Despite tremendous progresses made in the past few decades in molecular dynamics
simulations of glass and related materials, there exist a number of challenges in MD …

Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to determine the structural modifications occurring in a
simple ion-exchanged glass. The base lithium silicate composition 30Li2O–70SiO2 was …

Nanoscale science and engineering, or “nanotechnology” as it is commonly known, has
been a fundamental component of glass technology for hundreds if not thousands of years …

A new self‐consistent empirical potential model based on the BMP potential [Bertani et al.,
Phys. Rev. Mat. 5 (2021) 045602] has been developed for the simulation of multicomponent …

Aluminosilicate glasses are extensively used in flat panel displays and aircraft windshields
because of their superior mechanical characteristics. Understanding the influence of the …
