Abstract

Abstract The structural modifications in Ge5Se95 supercooled liquid under the application of a uniaxial compressive load are investigated using one- and two-dimensional 77Se nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The spectroscopic results clearly demonstrate a stress-induced alignment of selenium chains in the structure of the liquid in planes perpendicular to the loading axis. The topological modifications due to this selenium chain alignment result in inefficient atomic packing in the liquid structure that is manifested in a decrease in the glass density and may have important implications in understanding the pronounced non-Newtonian shear thinning behavior observed in Se-rich chalcogenide glasses/liquids.
