摘要：Glass structures of multicomponent oxide systems (CaO–Al
2O
3–SiO
2) are studied using a simulated pulsed laser with molecular dynamics. The short- and intermediate-range order structures revealed a direct correlation between the transformation of Al
(IV) to Al
(V), regions of increased density following laser processing, inherent reduction in the average T–O–T (T = Al, Si) angle, and associated elongation of the T–O bonding distance. Variable laser pulse energies were simulated across calcium aluminosilicate glasses with high silica content (50–80%) to identify densification trends attributed to composition and laser energy. High-intensity pulsed laser effects on fictive temperature and shockwave promotion are discussed in detail for their role in glass densification. Laser-induced structural changes are found to be highly dependent on pulse energy and glass chemistry.
