Abstract:
We performed in situ observation of low-frequency inelastic light scattering in a zincogermanate glass showing nanocrystallization of semiconductive Zn2GeO4 to elucidate the crystallization and phase transformation dynamics. In supercooledliquid state, an anomalous damping behavior of Boson peak was observed as the elastic softening happened. Combination of Boson and TEM studies revealed that the Boson damping is due to the liquid-liquid phase separation, which occurs prior to nanocrystallization, suggesting possibility of in situ spectroscopic observation of phase separation.
