Structural relaxation is an atomic level rearrangement observed in most amorphous materials and Chalcogenide glasses below the crystallization temperature. Structural relaxation has an impact on optical [1] , mechanical [2] , and electronic transport properties [3] -[6] , and has been also reported for metallic glasses [7] . Amorphous semiconductor such as Si [8] , Ge [9] , and Chalcogenide glasses, their various elemental combinations are reported for application in electronic nonvolatile resistive memories based on phase change [5] [6] and in thermal transport properties. Nowadays the development of phase change memory technology led to the appearance of new materials. Chalcogenide glass semiconductors are one of these families due to their interesting properties. Structural relaxations in Chalcogenide glasses occur through cooperative rearranging region, which grow with decreasing temperature. Earlier studies on thermal annealing have shown the presence of significant defect annihilation during the structural relaxation process where point defects such as vacancies, dangling bond, and distorted bonds disappear at traps and recombine in pairs [8] . Our recent work has demonstrated unexpected nano-metric signals reported first time by Raman scattering in present Ge_xSe_1−x glasses [10] in place of Boson peak feature in Chalcogenide glasses [11] . The general nature of these excess vibration acoustic vs. optic is quite debated [12] -[16] . The purpose of the current work is to report experimental observations of three-phase separation from activation energies data analysis and nominally change in the values of U_CRR/RT_g in thermal studies by modulating differential scanning calorimetry.

Chalcogenide glasses containing S/Se or Te constitute a rich family in combination with group IV elements. Intense research activities based on these glasses are due to technological applications in resistive phase change memory devices. Ge_xSe_1−x glasses were prepared by melt quenching technique, preparation details of glasses are mentioned in the article [10] [17] . Amorphous nature of the sample was verified by XRD, which shows no crystalline Bragg peaks. Glassy nature of the samples was confirmed by modulated differential scanning calorimetry MDSC (2910, TA Instruments). Glass transition temperature T_g was determined from the inflexion point of baseline shift in their heat capacity data, obtained at heating scan rate of 5˚C/min, and modulation of ±1˚C at 80 sec period [18] [19] .

Structural relaxation at the liquid glass transition has been studied for many years. It is commonly believed that glass transition is just to avoid the crystallization process. Glassy state is an extension of liquid state in which viscosity increases above ~10¹³ poise; it means that solid does not flow. Glass transition would then be kinetic in nature, a gradual freezing out of equivalent configurations. The value of glass transition (T_g) and the shape of specific heat depend on heating and cooling rates of the measurements and also on the thermal history of the sample [20] [21] . In general, it has observed with the data, position of glass transition temperature shift towards at high temperature, with high heating rates employed.

We have made numerous efforts to understand the nature of glass transition and relate T_g easily to some quantitative quantity which is U_CRR/RT_g. In the usual liquid regime above the melting point the isochoric activation energies are very small but the apparent activation energies grow dramatically in the supercooled regime. U_CRR is the activation energy per basic molecular structural unit at cooperative rearranging region. The concept of cooperative molecular motion is useful to rationalize dramatic changes in the transport properties of liquids as they are cooled towards their glass transition. Mode coupling theory (MCT) [22] attributes slowing down particle motion at low temperature which eventually causes a structural arrest of the liquid dynamics. However, there has been no direct experimental observation of this kind of cooperative motion. It is natural to suppose that cooperative motion might be associated with dynamical heterogeneity. The intermolecular spatial correlation in the glassy state is determined by the collective rearrangement inside the glass transition zone. Correlation length ζ considered by Adam Gibb’s theory [23] characterizes this cooperative rearranging region in under cooled liquids.  The “Arrhenius” activation energy of the basic molecular species is defined as

U_bms is identified with the potential barrier formed by the interaction of the molecule with its neighbors [24] [25] . Microscopically glass former is cooled; the identity and nature of dynamical entity undergo significant changes―from being atomic and fast tunneling, to dipolar/rigid polyhedral slowly liberating molecules to loosely connect molecular-clusters, sluggishly diffusing because of free volume [26] . This implies a successive collectivization of the basic atomic motion. Therefore, the assumption of single activation energy and time-scale oversimplifies the hierarchically evolving nature of microscopic glass dynamics.

Non-Arrhenicity ensues from the imperfect de-mixing of a-and β-relaxation modes, implying that the mole-

cular dynamical units in the glass transition region are not independent (i.e., imprecisely defined). This imprecision gets embodied in the form of Vogel-Fulcher temperature dependence of the (atomic) relaxation time. The Vogel-Fulcher form is sometimes interpreted as super-Arrhenius in following manner .

To describe the cooperative molecular dynamics one thus uses three activation energies viz., that of a basic molecular species U_bms = RB, cooperative unit U_crr = ZRB, and the apparent one U_app = Z²RB. Activation energies determined for the energetic characterization of Ge_xSe_1−x system are shown in Figure 1 against T_g and the glass fragility m_Angel. The A-G factor U_crr/RT_g seen nominally constant, varies within 34.41 and 36.44! The concurrences when and (Figure 1(b) inset) provide (37-U_crr/RT_g) as the “energetic measure” of non-Arrhenicity/spatial uniformity.
