Overcoming the Brittleness of Oxide Glasses by Surface Aging
Overcoming the Brittleness of Oxide Glasses by Surface Aging
In this project, we will explore the use of aging in humid atmosphere to enable certain oxide glasses to undergo self-healing and exhibit ultra-high damage resistance. Experiments will be complemented by reactive molecular dynamics simulations.

European Spallation Source Lighthouse: Hard Materials in 3D (SOLID)
European Spallation Source Lighthouse: Hard Materials in 3D (SOLID)
We are part of the cross-disciplinary center SOLID (https://solid.dtu.dk/), which aims at visualizing the internal structure of materials in 3D on all relevant length and time scales using the world most powerful neutron and x-ray sources. We are involved in the work package on amorphous materials, where we will characterize deformation mechanisms in oxide glasses on all relevant length scales.
