Freeze water rapidly below 0 °C, and you get a disordered glass-like solid called low-density amorphous (LDA) ice. Since LDA ice’s discovery 90 years ago, its atomic-scale structure has remained contested. Now researchers have shown that LDA ice is not a true glass but is partly crystalline.
Amorphous Ice Is Partly Crystalline
Evidence builds against the long-held notion that water ice can be truly glassy.
