How fluorine minimizes density fluctuations of silica glass: Molecular dynamics study with machine-learning assisted force-matching potential

Transparent silica glass is an indispensable material for today's information technology society as an ultra-low loss optical fiber. Recently, further low-loss optical fibers are demanded due to rapidly expanding information. A small amount of fluorine doping is known to reduce the Rayleigh sca...
