The mechanisms of plastic deformation glassy solids and structural origin $\ensuremath{\beta}$ relaxation are two fundamental issues. We provide compelling experimental evidence that the activation shear transformation zones (STZs) relaxations in metallic glasses directly related, energy potential-energy barriers STZs nearly equivalent. Our results suggest an intrinsic correlation among potential STZs, relaxation, inhomogeneous atomic structure glasses, which has implications for...

We report a close correlation between the dynamic behavior of serrated flow and plasticity in metallic glasses (MGs) show that plastic deformation ductile MGs can evolve into self-organized critical state characterized by power-law distribution shear avalanches.

Metallic glasses are commonly brittle, as they generally fail catastrophically under uniaxial tension. Here we show pronounced macroscopic tensile plasticity achieved in a La-based metallic glass which possesses strong $\ensuremath{\beta}$ relaxations and nanoscale heterogeneous structures. We demonstrate that the relaxation is closely correlated with activation of structural units plastic deformations global plasticity, transition from brittle to ductile tension follow similar...

Abstract With sufficient high cooling rates, a variety of liquids, including metallic melts, will cross glass transition temperature and solidify into accompanying marked increase the shear viscosity in approximately 17 orders magnitude. Because intricate atomic structure dynamic behaviours liquid, it is yet difficult to capture underlying structural mechanism responsible for slowing down during transition, which impedes deep understanding formation nature glasses. Here, we report that...

A mandrel winding method, which can realize remarkable homogeneous plastic deformation at room temperature for various metallic glasses, is applied to characterize flow units and study their relationship with macroscopic deformations relaxations. The method provide information on the activation energy, time, size, intrinsic relaxation distribution, density of units.

The prediction of the glass-forming ability (GFA) by varying composition alloys is a challenging problem in glass physics, as well for industry, with enormous financial ramifications. Although different empirical guides GFA were established over decades, comprehensive model or approach that able to deal many variables possible simultaneously efficiently predicting good formers still highly desirable. Here, applying support vector classification method, we develop models binary metallic from...
