Glassy Nuclei in Amorphous Ice : Novel Evidence for the Two-Liquids Nature of Water, Paperback / softback Book

Glassy Nuclei in Amorphous Ice : Novel Evidence for the Two-Liquids Nature of Water Paperback / softback

Part of the BestMasters series

Paperback / softback

Description

Christina Maria Tonauer finds novel evidence for the first-order nature of the transition between high-density amorphous ice (HDA) and low-density amorphous ice (LDA), supporting water’s liquid-liquid transition scenarios.

Pressure-dependent crystallisation experiments of differently prepared expanded high-density amorphous ice samples (eHDA) and subsequent powder x-ray diffraction experiments disclose nucleation of LDA domains in bulk HDA, a typical feature of a first-order transition.

The comparison of pressure-dependent crystallisation temperatures of eHDA samples with LDA nuclei and bulk LDA allows the estimation of the Laplace pressure and the size of a LDA nucleus.
