“…However, this characteristic length is smaller than the wavelength (w85 nm) of the initial perturbation of the meniscus instability for Vit 1 bulk MGs [21,26]. According to the ductile-to-brittle criterion for fracture of MGs [21,26,30], the meniscus instability actually does not develop during such extremely local flow. Moreover, with the attendant long-range correlated plastic flow in nanoscale, the peak profiles also display very weak-fractal character with the dimension of about 1.05.…”
