A facet of perspectives in materials science

概要

Close examination of materials science through our limited experiences from the thermodynamic point of view shows that our knowledge on amorphous solids is quite poor compared with that on crystalline solids. Most of pure substances can be obtained in principle as crystalline as well as non-crystalline states either by physical or chemical methods. Destruction of the three-dimensional periodicity characteristic of crystalline substances will produce amorphous solids possessing novel properties which are not possible to anticipate from the knowledge on crystal sciences. One direction of materials science in the coming century will be surely a new realm of amorphous condensed-matter science.
