The experimental results show that the viscosity of these melts decreases with increasing temperature. The anomalous change of viscosity occurs at about 430 and 470℃in pure In melt. The variation of viscosity with temperature well meets exponential correlation and no anomalous change occurs in measured temperature range in the In-1%Sb alloy melt. A transition occurs at about 800℃ in both of In-55%Sb and In-69.5%Sb alloy melts. The sudden change of viscosity suggests the structure change of melts. DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) curves of In-1%Sb alloy during heating and cooling were measured, and the results show that no structural variation in In-1%Sb alloy melt was testified further. In addition, the viscosity of In melt decreases with the addition of1%Sb.展开更多

Experimental results show that with the addition of 1%Cu or 5% Cu, the thermal contraction phenomenon of atom clusters occurs in melts with thetemperature increasing like pure In melt. With the addition of 1% Cu, the thermal contraction ofatom clusters increases and the contraction is not homogeneous in the whole measurement temperaturerange. The sudden change and noticeable contraction can be found in the range of 280-390 ℃. Thetemperature range of the sudden change is lower than that of pure In melt. With the addition of 5%Cu, the thermal contraction of atom clusters decreases and the contraction is not consistent in thewhole measurement temperature range. The anomalous change can be measured at about 600 ℃. At thesame superheating temperature, the nearest interatomic distance r_1 of the melts containing copperis smaller than that of pure In melt, implying that the cluster structure of melts containing copperis more compact.展开更多

The concept enables the comparison between the glass-forming liquids with different dynamic characters by using a general criterion, in which the temperature scale is reduced by the glass transition temperature. In order to illuminate the significance of the concept in the fields of the glass transition,structural relaxation process and the structure of supercooled liquids, the accomplished progress and the faced challenges are summarized from different aspects such as on the correlation between dynamics and thermodynamic characters of condensed matters, on the energy landscape, on the nonexponential relaxation and on the theoretical model of microstructure and medium-range order.
