  2. Fused quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_quartz

    Fused quartz, fused silica or quartz glass is a glass consisting of almost pure silica (silicon dioxide, SiO 2) in amorphous (non- crystalline) form. This differs from all other commercial glasses, such as soda-lime glass, lead glass, or borosilicate glass, in which other ingredients are added which change the glasses' optical and physical ...

  3. Silicon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_dioxide

    Silica is one of the most complex and abundant families of materials, existing as a compound of several minerals and as a synthetic product. Examples include fused quartz, fumed silica, opal, and aerogels. It is used in structural materials, microelectronics, and as components in the food and pharmaceutical industries. All forms are white or ...

  4. Cristobalite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cristobalite

    Cristobalite spherulites formed by devitrification from the obsidian matrix. Specimen from California, US; size: 5.9 cm × 3.8 cm × 3.8 cm (2.3 in × 1.5 in × 1.5 in). Cristobalite (/ krɪˈstoʊbəˌlaɪt /) is a mineral polymorph of silica that is formed at very high temperatures. It has the same chemical formula as quartz, SiO 2, but a ...

  5. List of physical properties of glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical...

    Unless stated otherwise, the properties of fused silica (quartz glass) and germania glass are derived from the SciGlass glass database by forming the arithmetic mean of all the experimental values from different authors (in general more than 10 independent sources for quartz glass and T g of germanium oxide glass). The list is not exhaustive.

  6. Optical rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation

    The rotation of the crystal planes can be right or left-handed, again producing opposite optical activities. On the other hand, amorphous forms of silica such as fused quartz, like a racemic mixture of chiral molecules, has no net optical activity since one or the other crystal structure does not dominate the substance's internal molecular ...

  7. Quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

    Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silica (silicon dioxide). The atoms are linked in a continuous framework of SiO 4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO 2. Quartz is, therefore, classified structurally as a framework silicate mineral and ...

  8. 5D optical data storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5D_optical_data_storage

    t. e. 5D optical data storage (also branded as Superman memory crystal, [1] a reference to the Kryptonian memory crystals from the Superman franchise) is an experimental nanostructured glass for permanently recording digital data using a femtosecond laser writing process. [2] Discs using this technology could be capable of storing up to 360 ...

  9. Stishovite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stishovite

    Stishovite may also be synthesized by duplicating these conditions in the laboratory, either isostatically or through shock (see shocked quartz). [12] At 4.287 g/cm 3, it is the second densest polymorph of silica, after seifertite. It has tetragonal crystal symmetry, P4 2 /mnm, No. 136, Pearson symbol tP6. [13]
