Amorphous solids

Amorphous solids are a class of materials that lack a long-range ordered crystalline structure. Unlike crystalline solids, which have a well-defined and repeating arrangement of atoms or molecules, amorphous solids possess a disordered arrangement. This means that their atomic or molecular structure does not exhibit the regular repeating patterns characteristic of crystals. Key features of amorphous solids include: 1. **Disordered Structure**: Amorphous solids do not have a definitive geometric shape or long-range order.
