The glass-to-liquid transition of the emulsified high-density amorphous ice made by pressure-induced amorphization
Emulsified high-density amorphous ice, made by pressure-induced amorphization of emulsified ice Ih, was decompressed at about 160 K. The onset of an endothermic event was observed around 0.4 GPa during the decompression. This is consistent with existence of the glass transition to a liquid state, implying the close relationship between melting and amorphization. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
