Soliquidy: a descriptor for atomic geometrical confusion
摘要
Tailoring material properties often requires understanding the solidification process. Herein, we introduce the geometric descriptor Soliquidy, which numerically captures the Euclidean transport cost between the translationally disordered versus ordered states of a materials. As a testbed, we apply Soliquidy to the classification of glass-forming metal alloys. By extending and combining an experimental library of metallic thin films (glass/no-glass) with the
