Strukturelle Merkmale und Eigenschaften von amorphen Legierungen mit hoher Defektdichte/Grenzflächendichte
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
The structural features as well as mechanical properties of several amorphous alloys such as Zr62Cu22Al10Fe5Dy1, Zr52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10Ti5 (Vitreloy 105), Ti50Ni25Cu25 and Cu50Zr50 (at. %) with high density of defects introduced by severe plastic deformation by high pressure torsion (HPT) had been studied by means of X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atom probe tomography and nanoindentation. It was found that HPT leads to an increase of the free volume in all studied alloys for 1-2% due to extensive formation of shear bands (SBs). In this respect HPT-processed bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are similar to nanoglasses, produced by inert gas condensation and sputtering. For the first time the local chemical–structural modifications associated to shear banding in the HPT-deformed samples of Vitreloy 5 BMG alloy were studied by means of 4D-STEM followed by an on-site developed method for phase mapping of nanostructured amorphous materials. This method allowed to unambiguously recognize shear bands, whereas they were practically invisible in conventional TEM imaging modes. It was found that in a narrow SB area, confined to a few nanometers, a reduction of geometrically favored motifs (GFMs, tetrahedrally closepacked polyhedral structural units building the atomic structure of metallic glasses), and a formation of geometrically unfavorable motifs (GUMs) occurred. Furthermore, an abrupt segregation of Zr and Cu at opposite sides inside the SB was observed. In the vicinity of the SB, the antisymmetric shear band affected zone extending several hundred nanometers away from the SB, was formed. Further investigations showed that the formation of GUMs led to increased plasticity, which was manifested by the absence of serrations in the nanoindentation curves along with an increased strain rate sensitivity of HPT-processed metallic glasses. Such behavior resembles that of nanoglasses. It was proposed that the plasticity of BMGs may be enhanced by alloy design that includes selecting atomic species having enough flexibility to rearrange their local chemical structure because the GUMs and GFMs prefer different elemental composition.
