Substantially enhanced plasticity of bulk metallic glasses by densifying local atomic packing

Substantially enhanced plasticity of bulk metallic glasses by densifying local atomic packing

Common wisdom to improve ductility of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) is to introduce local loose packing regions at the expense of strength. Here the authors enhance structural fluctuations of BMGs by introducing dense local packing regions, resulting in simultaneous increase of ductility and strength...
