Abstract
AbstractZr-based metallic glasses are prepared by quenching supercooled liquid under pressure. These glasses are stable in ambient conditions after decompression. The High Pressure Quenched glasses have a distinct structure and properties. The pair distribution function shows redistribution of the Zr-Zr interatomic distances and their shift towards smaller values. These glasses exhibit higher density, hardness, elastic modulus, and yield stress. Upon heating at ambient pressure, they show volume expansion and distinct relaxation behavior, reaching an equilibrated state above the glass transition. These experimental results are consistent with an idea of pressure-induced low to high density liquid transition in the supercooled melt.
