    Dynamics of serrated flow in a bulk metallic glass
    (New York : American Institute of Physics, 2011) Ren, J.L.; Chen, C.; Wang, G.; Mattern, N.; Eckert, J.
    Under compression loading, bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) irreversibly deform through shear banding manifested as a serrated flow behavior. By using a statistical analysis together with a complementary dynamical analysis of the stress-time curves during serrated flow, we characterize the distinct spatiotemporal dynamical regimes and find that the plastic dynamic behavior of a Cu50Zr45Ti5 BMG changes from chaotic to self-organized critical behavior with increasing strain rate. This plastic dynamics transition with the strain rate is interpreted in the frame of the competence between the neighboring elastic strain field forming and relaxation processes.

    Crystallization of Fe82Si2B16 and Fe82Si4B14 metallic glasses upon isothermal and non-isothermal annealing
    (Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2011) Shpak, A.P.; Il’inskii, A.G.; Marunyak, A.V.; Slukhovskyy, O.I.; Lepeeva, Yu. V.; Dekhtyar, A.; Kaban, I.; Mattern, N.; Eckert, J.
    Crystallization of Fe82Si2B16 and Fe82Si4B14 metallic glasses upon heat treatment has been studied. The amorphous ribbons have been isothermally annealed at different temperatures (673, 693, 733 and 743 K) and for various times (from 15 min to 78 hours). Phase compositions and the sequence of their appearance in dependence on the annealing temperature and time have been established.

    Structural evolution and strength change of a metallic glass at different temperatures
    (London : Nature Publishing Group, 2016) Tong, X.; Wang, G.; Stachurski, Z.H.; Bednarčík, J.; Mattern, N.; Zhai, Q.J.; Eckert, J.
    The structural evolution of a Zr64.13Cu15.75Ni10.12Al10 metallic glass is investigated in-situ by high-energy synchrotron X-ray radiation upon heating up to crystallization. The structural rearrangements on the atomic scale during the heating process are analysed as a function of temperature, focusing on shift of the peaks of the structure factor in reciprocal space and the pair distribution function and radial distribution function in real space which are correlated with atomic rearrangements and progressing nanocrystallization. Thermal expansion and contraction of the coordination shells is measured and correlated with the bulk coefficient of thermal expansion. The characteristics of the microstructure and the yield strength of the metallic glass at high temperature are discussed aiming to elucidate the correlation between the atomic arrangement and the mechanical properties.

    Correlation between atomic structure evolution and strength in a bulk metallic glass at cryogenic temperature
    (London : Nature Publishing Group, 2014) Tan, J.; Wang, G.; Liu, Z.Y.; Bednarčík, J.; Gao, Y.L.; Zhai, Q.J.; Mattern, N.; Eckert, J.
    A model Zr41.25Ti13.75Ni10Cu12.5Be22.5 (at.%) bulk metallic glass (BMG) is selected to explore the structural evolution on the atomic scale with decreasing temperature down to cryogenic level using high energy X-ray synchrotron radiation. We discover a close correlation between the atomic structure evolution and the strength of the BMG and find out that the activation energy increment of the concordantly atomic shifting at lower temperature is the main factor influencing the strength. Our results might provide a fundamental understanding of the atomic-scale structure evolution and may bridge the gap between the atomic-scale physics and the macro-scale fracture strength for BMGs.
