Nanoscale structures of the 0-h-annealed sample (pristine glass) (a) and 4-h-annealed sample (b). Representations of the intermediate-range structure in the Zr-rich phase for pristine glass (c) and the 4-h-annealed sample (d). Green: zirconium, blue: silicon, cyan: aluminum, magenta: phosphorus, orange: lithium, purple: sodium, and red: oxygen. The yellow polyhedra indicate edge-sharing polyhedral connections.
