Physical and optical properties of the International Simple Glass (open access)

Physical and optical properties of the International Simple Glass

This article presents physical property data (both published and previously unpublished) on a single batch of International Simple Glass (ISG), which was cast into individual ingots that were distributed to the collaborators. Properties from the atomic scale to the macroscale, including composition and elemental impurities, phase purity, density, thermal properties, mechanical properties, optical and vibrational properties, and the results of molecular dynamics simulations are presented, as well as information on the surface composition and morphology after polishing. Although the existing literature on the alteration of ISG is not extensively reviewed here, the results of well-controlled static alteration experiments are presented here as a point of reference for other performance investigations.
