High-throughput drawing and testing of metallic glass nanostructures

Abstract: Thermoplastic embossing of metallic glasses promises direct imprinting of metal nanostructures using templates. However, embossing high-aspect-ratio nanostructures faces unworkable flow resistance due to friction and non-wetting conditions at the template interface. Herein, we show that these inherent challenges of embossing can be reversed by thermoplastic drawing using templates. The flow resistance not only remains independent of wetting but also decreases with increasing feature aspect-ratio. Arrays of ass… Show more

“…This consistency indirectly proves that homogeneous plasticity of nanoscale metallic glass originates from the shear transformations around shear dilatation. [72] This is consistent with the intermediate temperature brittleness in BMGs discovered recently. [68] In addition, the prediction shown in Figure 11 that the critical length scale varied with strain rate is consistent with experiments in a literature.…”

“…The figure shows that the critical wire diameter for the transition at the experimental strain rate is very close to the size of the shear band nucleus. [72] The critical length scale of the transition decreases with increasing temperature at intermediate temperatures (300-400 K). This explanation can also explain the work hardening of nanoscale MGs as described above because shear transformation around shear dilatation need higher stress.…”

“…[44] Thus nanowires and nanorods resulting in a 3D-N can be created using a top-down approach. [48] Kumar and co-workers proposed a template assisted thermoplastic drawing technique that can fabricate nanotips, nanorods, nanowires/tubes and nanoscale tensile specimens as shown in Figure 3. [45] These binderfree electrodes are gaining recent interest because the presence of binder materials in conventional electrodes decreases the contact area between the electrolyte and catalyst (blocking catalytically active sites) which can result in high resistance and reduced electrocatalytic performance, [46] We show a general TPF procedure for fabricating MGNs for electrocatalytic reactions (Figure 2).…”

“…[35] 3D-Ns are part of a larger group of electrodes referred to as one-body or binder-free electrodes (see Section 3.1). [48] The size of the nanorods created by traditional TPF is primarily limited by the size of the nanotemplate, which ranges from sub-100 nm to several hundreds of nanometers. [40] The formability and optimal processing when using TPF depends on the viscosity, flow velocity and channel width.…”
