amorphous
21Amorphous computing — refers to computational systems that use very large numbers of identical, parallel processors each having limited computational ability and local interactions. The term Amorphous Computing was coined at MIT in 1996 in a paper entitled [http://www …
22Amorphous solid — Amorphous redirects here. For amorphousness in computational systems, see amorphous computing. For amorphousness in science fiction, see amorphous creature. For amorphousness in set theory, see amorphous set. In condensed matter physics, an… …
23Amorphous carbon — is an allotrope of carbon that does not have any crystalline structure. As with all glassy materials, some short range order can be observed, but there is no long range pattern of atomic positions. Amorphous carbon is often abbreviated to aC for… …
24Amorphous ice — is an amorphous solid form of water, meaning it consists of water molecules that are randomly arranged like the atoms of common glass. Everyday ice is a polycrystalline material. Amorphous ice is distinguished by its lack of long range order.… …
25Amorphous silicon — (a Si) is the non crystalline allotropic form of silicon. Silicon is a four fold coordinated atom that is normally tetrahedrally bonded to four neighboring silicon atoms. In crystalline silicon this tetrahedral structure is continued over a large …
26Amorphous carbonia — Amorphous carbonia, also called a carbonia or a CO2, is an exotic amorphous solid form of carbon dioxide that is analogous to amorphous silica glass. It was first made in the laboratory in 2006 by subjecting dry ice to high pressures (40 50… …
27Amorphous metal transformer — (AMT) is a type of energy efficient transformer found on electric grids. [B. Kennedy, “Energy Efficient Transformers” McGraw Hill, 1998.] The magnetic core of this transformer is made with amorphous metal, which is easily magnetized /… …
28Amorphous calcium phosphate — (ACP) is a substance used as a dental treatment. Calcium and phosphate are natural building blocks of teeth, and when present in insufficient amounts, there can be sensitivity after procedures such as dental bleaching or professional dental… …
