چکیده
The earlier paper of this same title demonstrated a collapse of relaxation data of fragile supercooled glass forming liquids [J. Phys. Chem. B 2009, 113, 5563-5567]. For temperature T below that of the onset to supercooled behavior, T(o), the logarithm of structural relaxation time, log τ, is given by the parabolic form log(τ/τ(o)) = J(2)(1/T - 1/T(o))(2), where J and τ(o) are temperature-independent. This paper presents further applications of this formula. In particular, it is shown that the effects of attractive forces in numerical simulation of glass-forming liquids can be logically organized in terms of J and T(o). Further, analysis of experimental data for several systems suggests that J and T(o) are material properties. In contrast, values of similar parameters for other fitting formulas are shown to depend not only upon the material but also upon the range of data used in fitting these formulas. Expressions demonstrated to fail in this way include the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann formula, a double-exponential formula, and a fractional exponential formula.

Corresponding states of structural glass formers.
The variation with respect to temperature T of transport properties of 58 fragile structural glass-forming liquids (67 data sets in total) are analyzed and shown to exhibit a remarkable degree of universality. In particular, super-Arrhenius behaviors of all supercooled liquids appear to collapse to one parabola for which there is no singular behavior at any finite temperature. This behavior is ...
متن کاملCoarse-grained microscopic model of glass formers.
We introduce a coarse-grained model for atomic glass formers. Its elements are physically motivated local microscopic dynamical rules parameterized by observables. Results of the model are established and used to interpret the measured behaviors of supercooled fluids approaching glass transitions. The model predicts the presence of a crossover from hierarchical super-Arrhenius dynamics at short...
متن کاملConfigurational entropy of polar glass formers and the effect of electric field on glass transition.
A model of low-temperature polar liquids is constructed that accounts for the configurational heat capacity, entropy, and the effect of a strong electric field on the glass transition. The model is based on the Padé-truncated perturbation expansions of the liquid state theory. Depending on parameters, it accommodates an ideal glass transition of vanishing configurational entropy and its avoidan...
متن کاملGlass formers display universal non-equilibrium dynamics on the level of single-particle jumps
Glasses are inherently out-of-equilibrium systems evolving slowly toward their equilibrium state in a process called physical aging. During aging, dynamic observables depend on the history of the system, hampering comparative studies of dynamics in different glass formers. Here, we demonstrate how glass formers can be directly compared on the level of single-particle jumps, i.e. the structural ...
متن کاملPressure evolution of the excess wing in a type-B glass former.
Glass formers are defined as "type B" when they exhibit a distinct Johari-Goldstein (JG) relaxation, but lack an excess loss ("excess wing," EW) in their structural relaxation peak. By studying the dielectric spectra of a well-known type-B glass former under high pressure, we unequivocally show the existence of an EW, simultaneously with the JG relaxation. Moreover, at very high pressures (0.6 ...
