A clever molecular trick unlocks previously impossible properties in glass

Scientists have discovered how to reprogram the internal structure of glass using a special molecule that rearranges chemical bonds while lowering the melting temperature. The breakthrough could unlock entirely new glass materials with precisely controlled magnetic and optical properties, opening possibilities for advanced electronics, sensors, and other technologies.
