英文摘要 | Glasses relax internally even when their structure is frozen. Observations of a two-dimensional glass former now show that although structure relaxation freezes with the glass transition, non-constrained bonds survive; this accounts for persisting internal relaxation. Unlike a crystal, a glassy solid state displays slow internal relaxation processes besides vibrational modes even when structural (alpha) relaxation is frozen. The precise nature of such residual local relaxation modes remains poorly understood due to the lack of real-space information. Here we directly visualize the internal relaxations in a glass via a long-time observation of the dynamics of a mechanically driven two-dimensional granular system that shows a pinning-induced transition. This allows directly visualizing the internal relaxations in a glass. On approaching the glass transition, vanishing cage-breaking motion is observed, accompanied by the emergence of a restricted dynamic mode characterizing slow beta relaxation. The emergence of bond rigidity freezes the structure relaxation and leads to slow beta motion. Our findings indicate that unlike crystallization, where all the bonds are constrained, vitrification in a disordered system freezes alpha relaxation and accompanies elastic percolation, but the remaining non-constrained bonds provide room for slow beta relaxation. |
