[0052] The term transition temperature can refer to the glass-liquid transition where an amorphous solid can transition from a hard and "glassy" state into a soft or rubber-like state. The transition temperature refers to a range of temperature at which a material transitions between the hard-like state and the rubber-like state. The transition temperature can also be related to the amount of energy that is required in order to break covalent bonds in an amorphous (or random network) lattice of covalent bonds, and subsequently reform the broken covalent bonds. At the transition temperature, the material is heated above its recrystallization temperature. Heating the material above its recrystallization temperature can prevent the chemical bonds from re-forming with each other.
[0053] In some examples, the transition temperature of fused quartz (pure SiO.sub.2) is about 1665.degree. C. or about 1475.degree. K. When the molted silicon dioxide SiO.sub.2 is rapidly cooled, the substrate does not crystallize, but instead solidifies as an amorphous (non-crystalline) glass structure.
