Abstract

The free-volume model was first proposed to study movement in dense liquids near the liquid → glass transition T_g. The model has been extended in the last few years to apply to the thermodynamics near T_g, to relaxation and the glass transition and to tunneling centers at very low temperatures. In this paper, we first review the essential elements of our new free-volume model and then discuss several recent experimental results on relaxation phenomena which support this picture of the glass transition.
