“…Furthermore, the high cooling rate [25] can be utilized to synthesize metallic glasses over wide composition ranges [26], whereby composition and property relationships can be determined. In this work, combinatorial design approaches and compositional tuning [27,18,6,[28][29][30] have been employed to enhance the material properties of TaNiSiC and TaNiC glasses, which to our knowledge have not been studied before. They are expected to form metallic glasses over wide composition ranges due to high cooling rates during sputtering and their spread in atomic radii (Ta: 147 pm, Ni: 127 pm, Si: 117 pm, and C: 77 pm) [32,33].…”
