Current Status of Computer Simulation of Glass. Will DFT replace force-field methods?
Auteur(s): Kob W.
Conférence invité: Expert Panel on Computer Simulation of Glass (Mainz, DE, 2014-11-14)
Résumé: In the first part of this talk I will give a very brief overview on what
questions on glasses can be addressed by means of computer simulations.
As a result I will argue why the response to the above question is "No".
In the second part of the talk I will discuss a method, called "parallel
tempering", that allows to overcome one of the big issues encountered in
the simulation of glasses, the equilibration at low fictive temperatures.

Résumé: We use large scale computer simulations of a glass-forming liquid in which a fraction c of the particles has been permanently pinned. We find that the relaxation dynamics shows an exponential dependence on c. This result can be rationalized by assuming that the configurational entropy of the pinned liquid decreases linearly upon increasing of c. This behavior is discussed in the context of thermodynamic theories for the glass transition, notably the Adam-Gibbs picture and the random first order transition theory. For intermediate and low temperatures we find that the slowing down of the dynamics due to the pinning saturates and that the cooperativity decreases with increasing c, results which indicate that in glass-forming liquids there is a dynamic crossover at which the shape of the relaxing entities changes.

Résumé: We study the relaxation dynamics of a binary Lennard-Jones liquid in the presence of an amorphous wall generated from equilibrium particle configurations. In qualitative agreement with the results presented in Nature Phys. {\bf 8}, 164 (2012) for a liquid of harmonic spheres, we find that our binary mixture shows a saturation of the dynamical length scale close to the mode-coupling temperature $T_c$. Furthermore we show that, due to the broken symmetry imposed by the wall, signatures of an additional change in dynamics become apparent at a temperature well above $T_c$. We provide evidence that this modification in the relaxation dynamics occurs at a recently proposed dynamical crossover temperature $T_s > T_c$, which is related to the breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation. We find that this dynamical crossover at $T_s$ is also observed for a system of harmonic spheres as well as a WCA liquid, showing that it may be a general feature of glass-forming systems.
