Abstract
A novel mechanism of atomic transport in amorphous metallic alloys, or metallic glasses, is proposed based upon the fluctuations in the local structure. The proposed mechanism is very different from those in crystalline solids and from the free volume model, and is characterized by the bond-exchange action triggered by the local topological instability of the atomic environment. The implications of this mechanism on the liquid fragility and bulk metallic glass formation are discussed.
Dedicated to Professor Dr. Helmut Kronmüller on the occasion of his 70th birthday
-
It is a great pleasure to congratulate Professor Helmut Kronmüller for his 70th birthday, and to express my deep gratitude to him for his rich ideas, deep knowledge, overflowing enthusiasm, sagacious advises, great humor, warm and pleasant personality, and kind encouragements at many occasions over the three decades the author had a great fortune of being acquainted with him. This work was supported by the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency and the Office Naval Research through DARPA/ONR Grant N00014-01-1-0961 and through Boeing Co. Grant 44955-00-00.
