Crossover in dynamics in the Kob-Andersen binary mixture glass-forming liquid
نویسندگان
چکیده
Glass-forming liquids are broadly classified as being fragile or strong, depending on the deviation from Arrhenius behavior of their relaxation times. A to strong crossover is observed inferred in like water and silica, more recently also metallic glasses phase change alloys, leading expectation that such a widely realised among glass formers. We investigate computationally well-studied Kob-Andersen model, accessing temperatures well below mode coupling temperature TMCT. find times exhibit dynamics around TMCT, discuss whether it bears characteristics crossover. Several aspects dynamical heterogeneity mirroring crossover, whereas thermodynamic quantities do not. In particular, Adam-Gibbs relation describing between configurational entropy continues hold when anharmonic corrections vibrational included.

The nature of geometric frustration in the Kob-Andersen mixture.
Geometric frustration is an approach to the glass transition based upon the consideration of locally favoured structures (LFS), which are geometric motifs which minimise the local free energy. Geometric frustration proposes that a transition to a crystalline state is frustrated because these LFS do not tile space. However, this concept is based on icosahedra which are not always the LFS for a g...
متن کاملPair dynamics in a glass-forming binary mixture: simulations and theory.
We have carried out molecular dynamics simulations to understand the dynamics of a tagged pair of atoms in a strongly nonideal glass-forming binary Lennard-Jones mixture. Here atom B is smaller than atom A (sigma(BB)=0.88sigma(AA), where sigma(AA) is the molecular diameter of the A particles) and the AB interaction is stronger than that given by Lorentz-Berthelot mixing rule (epsilon(AB)=1.5eps...
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...
متن کاملThe Monte Carlo dynamics of a binary Lennard-Jones glass-forming mixture
We use a standard Monte Carlo algorithm to study the slow dynamics of a binary Lennard-Jones glass-forming mixture at low temperature. We find that the Monte Carlo approach is by far the most efficient way to simulate a stochastic dynamics since the relaxation is about 10 times faster than in Brownian dynamics and about 30 times faster than in stochastic dynamics. Moreover, the average dynamica...
متن کاملSpatial correlations in the relaxation of the Kob-Andersen model
– We describe spatio-temporal correlations and heterogeneities in a kinetically constrained glassy model, the Kob-Andersen model. The kinetic constraints of the model alone induce the existence of dynamic correlation lengths, that increase as the density ρ increases, in a way compatible with a double-exponential law. We characterize in detail the trapping time correlation length, the cooperativ...
