✦ Synopsis
Low energy excitations in crystalline and amorphous solids of Tri-O-methyl-b-cyclodextrin (TMCD) were studied by neutron scattering and calorimetric techniques. Amorphous solids of TMCD were prepared by two different ways: mechanical milling and liquid-quenching amorphization. Both the amorphous solids showed a boson peak at around 2 meV and there was no significant difference between them. It was noted that crystalline TMCD also showed a boson peak. This anomalous boson peak in the crystalline state was confirmed by low temperature heat capacity measurements.
