Low-frequency Raman and inelastic neutron scattering of amorphous bis-phenol A polycarbonate is measured at low temperature, and compared. The vibrational density of states and light-vibration coupling coefficient are determined. The frequency dependences of these parameters are explained by propagating vibration modes up to an energy of about 1 meV, and fracton-like modes in more cohesive domains at higher energies. The vibrational dynamics is in agreement with a disorder in the glass, which is principally of bonding or of elasticity instead of density.

We investigate the dielectric response in the glass-electret state of two dipolar glass-forming materials. This unusual polar glassy state of matter is produced when a dipolar liquid is supercooled under the influence of a high electric dc field, whi
ch leads to partial orientational order of the molecules carrying a dipole moment. Investigation of the prepared glass-electrets by using low-field dielectric spectroscopy reveals a clear modification of their dielectric response in the regime of the Johari-Goldstein beta-relaxation, pointing to a small but significant increase of its relaxation strength compared to the normal glass. We discuss the implications of this finding for the still controversial microscopic interpretation of the Johari-Goldstein relaxation, an inherent property of glassy matter.
The relaxation of the specific heat and the entropy to their equilibrium values is investigated numerically for the three-dimensional Coulomb glass at very low temperatures. The long time relaxation follows a stretched exponential function, $f(t)=f_0
exp[-(t/tau)^beta]$, with the exponent $beta$ increasing with the temperature. The relaxation time follows an Arrhenius behavior divergence when $Tto 0$. A relation between the specific heat and the entropy in the long time regime is found.
Slow relaxation and aging of the conductance are experimental features of a range of materials, which are collectively known as electron glasses. We report dynamic Monte Carlo simulations of the standard electron glass lattice model. In a non-equilib
rium state, the electrons will often form a Fermi distribution with an effective electron temperature higher than the phonon bath temperature. We study the effective temperature as a function of time in three different situations: relaxation after a quench from an initial random state, during driving by an external electric field and during relaxation after such driving. We observe logarithmic relaxation of the effective temperature after a quench from a random initial state as well as after driving the system for some time $t_w$ with a strong electric field. For not too strong electric field and not too long $t_w$ we observe that data for the effective temperature at different waiting times collapse when plotted as functions of $t/t_w$ -- the so-called simple aging. During the driving period we study how the effective temperature is established, separating the contributions from the sites involved in jumps from those that were not involved. It is found that the heating mainly affects the sites involved in jumps, but at strong driving, also the remaining sites are heated.
We use computer simulation to investigate the topology of the potential energy $V({{bf R}})$ and to search for doublewell potentials (DWP) in a model glass . By a sequence of Newtonian and dissipative dynamics we find different minima of $V({{bf R}})
$ and the energy profile along the least action paths joining them. At variance with previous suggestions, we find that the parameters describing the DWPs are correlated among each others. Moreover, the trajectory of the system in the 3$N$-d configurational phase space follows a quasi-1-d manifold. The motion parallel to the path is characterized by jumps between minima, and is nearly uncorrelated from the orthogonal, harmonic, dynamics.
We study random walks on the dilute hypercube using an exact enumeration Master equation technique, which is much more efficient than Monte Carlo methods for this problem. For each dilution $p$ the form of the relaxation of the memory function $q(t)$
can be accurately parametrized by a stretched exponential $q(t)=exp(-(t/tau)^beta)$ over several orders of magnitude in $q(t)$. As the critical dilution for percolation $p_c$ is approached, the time constant $tau(p)$ tends to diverge and the stretching exponent $beta(p)$ drops towards 1/3. As the same pattern of relaxation is observed in wide class of glass formers, the fractal like morphology of the giant cluster in the dilute hypercube is a good representation of the coarse grained phase space in these systems. For these glass formers the glass transition can be pictured as a percolation transition in phase space.
