Glass forming ability of Gd55Al15Ni30 ternary alloy

Ion beam mixing study of the favored glass-forming region of the ternary Fe–Zr–Nb system

“…However, in ternary systems, constituent metals have more complicated interactions with each other than those in binary metal systems, and the formation of the non-equilibrium phases and associated phase transformations in ternary metal systems are still not clear [8]. To predict the glassforming region (GFR) of a ternary system is still an open problem and hence it has attracted much attention of materials scientists in recent years [9,10]. In this study, the Fe-Zr-Nb ternary system was selected to investigate the non-equilibrium alloy phase formation and transformation by IBM.…”
