Examining metallic glass formation in LaCe:Nb by ion implantation

In order to combine niobium (Nb) with lanthanum (La) and cerium (Ce), Nb ions were deposited within a thin film of these two elements. According to the Hume-Rothery rules, these elements cannot be combined into a traditional crystalline metallic solid. The creation of an amorphous metallic...
