> While the researchers were not actively looking for any particular defect in the material, the advanced imaging technique uncovered a surface defect, called a twin boundary. At either side of the twin juncture, the molecular networks abruptly transformed their handedness. Reminds me of Q1D models that simulated glassy dynamics[0]: "We describe numerical simulations and analyses of a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) model of glassy dynamics. In this model, hard rods undergo Brownian dynamics through a series of narrow channels connected by $J$ intersections. We do not allow the rods to turn at…

> How do glasses form? Reminds me of cool paper (i think) from one folks I worked with describes in the abstract[0]: "We describe numerical simulations and analyses of a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) model of glassy dynamics. In this model, hard rods undergo Brownian dynamics through a series of narrow channels connected by J intersections. We do not allow the rods to turn at the intersections, and thus there is a single, continuous route through the system. This Q1D model displays caging behavior, collective particle rearrangements, and rapid growth of the structural relaxation time, which are…
