Description

Network structure of SiO2 and MgSiO3 at 300 K and 3200 K is investigated by molecular dynamics simulation and visualization of simulation data. Structural organization of SiO2 and MgSiO3 is clarified via analysis the short range order (SRO) and intermediate range order (IRO). Network topology is determined via analyzing the bond between structural units, the cluster of structural units as well as spatial distribution of structural units. The polyamorphism as well as structural and dynamic heterogeneities are also discussed in this work. (paper)
