Título: | Experimental evidence by neutron scattering of a crossover from Gaussian to non-Gaussian behavior in the α relaxation of polyisoprene |
Autor: | Arbe, Arantxa CSIC ORCID; Colmenero de León, Juan CSIC ORCID; Álvarez González, Fernando CSIC ORCID; Monkenbusch, Michael; Richter, Dieter; Farago, Bela; Frick, Bernhard | Fecha de publicación: | 2003 | Editor: | American Physical Society | Citación: | Physical Review E 67(5): 051802 (2003) | Resumen: | We report incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering experiments exploring the α-relaxation range in polyisoprene over an unprecedented range in momentum transfer Q. The data corroborate and validate earlier molecular dynamics simulations and reveal the existence of a crossover from Gaussian to non-Gaussian character of the main chain protons self-correlation function in the α-relaxation regime. The real challenge of the experiment was to push the neutron techniques to cover a Q range as wide as possible. By combining two neutron spin echo spectrometers and a backscattering instrument, we have been able to study the dynamics in a Q range of 0.1<~Q<~4.7Å−1. In the low- Q regime the shape of the relaxation function was found to be related to the dispersion of the relaxation times as predicted by the Gaussian assumption. At short distances or large Q, this relationship is strongly violated indicating a non-Gaussian regime. We have performed a detailed comparison between the experiments and simulations at different temperatures and found, apart from a temperature shift, complete agreement. Combining experiments and simulations led to a consistent interpretation in terms of a distribution of jumps underlying the diffusive motion of protons in the α process. This model leads to a time-dependent non-Gaussianity parameter that agrees nearly quantitatively with the simulations and exhibits all features resolved so far from various simulations. | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.67.051802 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/224671 | DOI: | 10.1103/PhysRevE.67.051802 | ISSN: | 2470-0045 |
