The structure of olivine-composition glasses is of considerable interest in both geology and glass-science. Olivine is one of the most common minerals in the Earth's upper mantle, and properties of olivine-rich melts are relevant to a variety of petrologic problems. Despite their prevalence and novelty, such glasses has not been studied thoroughly due to difficulties associated with their synthesis. Recently, Weber et al successfully prepared bulk olivine glass with the forsterite-composition MgSiO using a containerless technique and initiated a neutron-diffraction investigation of the short-range structure of the glass. In this study, we present a result of the pulsed neutron diffraction experiment on the forsterite-composition glass. The neutron diffraction analysis suggests that highly distorted MgO polyhedra are the major networking structural units in the forsterite-composition glass.

With the arrival of the latest generation of synchrotron sources and the introduction of advanced insertion devices, the high-energy (E 30keV) X-ray diffraction technique has become feasible, leading to new approaches in the quantitative study of the structure of disordered materials. Recently, the high-energy X-ray diffraction data have been combined with neutron diffraction data from a pulsed source to provide more detailed and reliable structural information than that hitherto available. We have developed a two-axis diffractometer for glass, liquid and amorphous materials at the SPring-8 high-energy X-ray diffraction beamline BL04B2. Furthermore, we have succeeded to analyze the intermediate-range order of a typical network forming glass, silica (SiO), by reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modelling technique with special focused on the ring structures using both high-energy X-ray and neutron diffraction data.
