Using a notion on the excess entropy of glass with respect to the counterpart crystal, we
introduce a simple dimensionless order parameter ξ, which changes from ξ→ 0 to ξ→ 1. The …

Containerless measurements of the thermophysical properties density, viscosity, and self-
diffusion by electromagnetic-(EML) and electrostatic levitation (ESL) are compared. The …

Although the liquid-liquid transition (LLT) and the fragile-to-strong (FS) transition occur in
many of glass-forming liquids, the fundamental question about whether and how the two …

The crystallization route and kinetics of a Cu-Zr-Al bulk metallic glass (BMG), based on Cu
50 Zr 50, were investigated using in-situ synchrotron small-and wide-angle X-ray scattering …

Abstract In this work, Al/Ti composite structures are obtained by isothermal compression at
550° C and then annealed at 500–650° C, respectively. The element diffusion behavior, TiAl …

Many endothermic liquid–liquid transitions, occurring at a temperature Tn+ above the
melting temperature Tm, are related to previous exothermic transitions, occurring at a …

An alternative concept of the formation of the defect structure and properties of metallic
glasses Ð the interstitialcy theory (IT), which has been actively developed recentlyÐis …

The effects of minor sulfur addition on the glass-forming ability (GFA), phase formation,
thermal stability, and mechanical properties of the Cu 47.5 Zr 45.1 Al 7.4 bulk metallic glass …

We performed calorimetric and shear modulus measurements on four bulk metallic glasses
upon heating up to the temperature of the complete crystallization as well as in the fully …

We studied the thermodynamics and kinetics of a non-equiatomic Ti 32.8 Zr 30.2 Ni 5.3 Cu 9
Be 22.7 high entropy metallic glass (HEMG, ΔS config.∼ 1.44 R) with a critical size for glass …
