Structure of metallic glasses

Abstract: Metallic glasses or amorphous alloys have been produced by rapid quenching of alloys from the liquid or vapour phase.This paper is a review of the studies on the structure of metallic glasses. The theory of diffraction by amorphous materials is dealt with at length followed by a description of the procedure of obtaining and analysing the RDF of amorphous alloys.Various models have been put forward to explain the structure of the metallic glasses, and these are fully discussed. A dense random packing model or m… Show more

“…In order to confirm the applicability of this model t,he radial distribution function, G ( r ) , is related to the structure factor S ( g ) which in turn is related [18, 191 to Variations of the resistivity with temperature at constant volume will be given by the changes in the resistivity structure factor with temperature. The t-matrix plays the role of a weighting function in (2) and is essentially temperature independent. In metglasses, which generally contain transition metals, the dominant contribution to the resistivity conies froin the back scattering region q = 2kF.…”

“…An early review on the structure of metallic glasses, written from Varanasi, offers a discussion of the various models for the atomic arrangements in amorphous alloys (Gokularathnam 1974). Among these Bernal's (1964) fleant feature of this model is the occurrence of polyhedral holes with atoms at the vertices.…”
