Relating structural heterogeneity to β relaxation processes in metallic glasses

The β relaxation is a crucial feature in metallic glasses (MGs). However, its structural origin is not fully elucidated. Using a contact resonance atomic force microscope, we investigated the local structural heterogeneity of MGs and its correlation with β relaxations. It was found that MGs have var...
