Summary: Recent studies have shown significant structural differences between Pt-Cu-Ni-P and Pd-Cu-Ni-P metallic glass-forming liquids, with Pd-rich systems exhibiting higher glass-forming ability. An increase in Pd content leads to changes in thermodynamic fragility, showing a stronger behavior.

Summary: The structural features of Pd42.5Cu30Ni7.5P20 and Pt42.5Cu27Ni9.5P21 metallic glasses were examined using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Pd42.5Cu30Ni7.5P20 exhibited true bulk glass-forming behavior without crystalline particles/nuclei, while Pt42.5Cu27Ni9.5P21 was a crystal growth-controlled bulk glass-former containing nanoparticles with a different chemical composition and an average size of about 1 nm. These structural differences influenced the mechanical properties at room temperature. Thermodynamic calculations supported the observed features.

Summary: In this study, the chemical dependence of thermally induced reentrant glass transition in (PdNi)(100-x)P-x MGs was systematically investigated. It was found that the reentrant glass transition in alloys with a P content of < 17 at% is suppressed with an increase in P. The composition dependence of the reentrant glass transition originates from the rearrangement of the metal-metalloid bond (i.e., Pd/Ni-P bonds) and the consequent short-range ordering to medium-range ordering.

Summary: A new strategy of minor substitution has been proposed to enhance the plasticity and yielding strength of ductile Fe-based bulk metallic glasses. The locally modified structure leads to improved resistance to shear band formation and propagation, resulting in significant improvement in both properties. One example is the development of (Fe1/3Co1/3Ni1/3)(77.5)Cr-2.5(P1/2B1/2) 20 high entropy bulk metallic glass, which shows substantial enhancement in plasticity and yielding strength.

Summary: This study investigates the reactivity between bismuth telluride and selected metallic substrates at high temperatures, revealing that copper has a strong reactivity with bismuth telluride while nickel shows moderate reactivity. Additionally, adding a small amount of copper to nickel significantly enhances the diffusivity of tellurium in the nickel substrate. The findings suggest that copper addition plays a key role in controlling reactivity, which impacts bonding strength, interfacial resistivity, and thermal stability.

Summary: The addition of Fe to Zr-Cu-Ni-Al bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) leads to the formation of a second glassy phase, which enhances plasticity and wear resistance. This dual-phase structure promotes multiple shear bands, increased toughness, and oxidative wear, ultimately improving the overall wear performance of the BMGs.

Summary: Ni-Nb-based bulk glass-forming alloys have excellent mechanical properties, but limited glass-forming ability. This study shows that minor additions of P and partial substitution of Nb by Ta can significantly enhance the glass-forming ability. The modified alloys exhibit high strength, extended plasticity, increased hardness, and an extended supercooled liquid region.

Summary: This study develops a neuroevolution machine learning potential (NEP) that accurately and efficiently analyzes and explores the microstructures, thermodynamic, and kinetic properties of Pd-Cu-Ni-P alloys. Molecular dynamics simulations using NEP show good agreement with DFT calculations and previous experiments, indicating its accuracy and effectiveness in analyzing the structures and properties of Pd-Cu-Ni-P alloys.

Summary: The addition of Fe to Zr-Cu-Al-Ni-Ti alloys can greatly affect their mechanical and corrosion resistance performance, with moderate Fe content improving compressive strength, plasticity, and corrosion resistance, while excessive Fe content may lead to the inability to form metallic glasses.

Summary: The application of highly biocompatible advanced materials leads to fewer complications and more successful medical treatments. This study proposes a new type of metallic glass that can be used as an oral implant material, and it explores the processing methods to improve its specific properties. The results show that the processed material has higher thermomechanical stability and better cytocompatibility.

Summary: This study reports an unusual hardening behavior of Pd42.5Ni42.5P15 metallic glass in its supercooled liquid region, which is attributed to structural ordering during deformation, rather than nanocrystallization or structural relaxation observed in metallic glasses deformed in supercooled liquid region. Additional work hardening region was also incorporated in the modified deformation map for metallic glasses.

Summary: This study investigates the crystallization behavior of Ti-Ni-Cu glassy alloys with the addition of transition metals Cr, Mn, and Fe, which alters the transformation temperature and heat effects. Crystallization in the Fe-bearing alloy initiates on the free surface, leading to strong <100> texture formation, while Mn and Cr-containing samples undergo crystallization within the entire volume.

Summary: In this work, a systematic study of a reentrant strain glass transition in a Ti50Ni34Cu16 shape memory alloy is reported. The transition is characterized by temperature invariance, deviation in heat flow and resistivity curves, frequency-dependent behavior, and a peak in a zero-field cooling curve. In-situ microstructural observations reveal the unchanged B19 martensitic domain pattern and the emergence of nanodomains with local 4H symmetry. A new phase diagram is established based on experimental results, which helps understand the formation of the reentrant strain glass. The study predicts the presence of more unusual properties in reentrant strain glass materials.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of various factors on silicon contamination by oxygen in photovoltaic silicon, using solidification experiments in coated silica crucibles. An analytical, semi-quantitative model is established to interpret the results, considering two oxygen flows: contamination flow at the crucible/silicon interface and evacuation flow at the silicon free surface.
