We review recent research into elastic and plastic deformation of metallic glasses, with an
emphasis on making connections between developments in theory and simulation (largely …

Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is widely used for imaging, diffraction,
and spectroscopy of materials down to atomic resolution. Recent advances in detector …

Amorphous solids such as glass, plastics and amorphous thin films are ubiquitous in our
daily life and have broad applications ranging from telecommunications to electronics and …

Solids in nature can be generally classified into crystalline and non-crystalline states,,,,,–,
depending on whether long-range lattice periodicity is present in the material. The …

Supercooled liquids and glasses are important for current and develo** technologies.
Here we provide perspective on recent progress in this field. The interpretation of …

With sufficient high cooling rates, a variety of liquids, including metallic melts, will cross a
glass transition temperature and solidify into glass accompanying a marked increase of the …

Metallic glasses, combining metallic bonding and disordered atomic structures, are at the
cutting edge of metallic materials research. Recent advances in this field have revealed that …

There are at least three fundamental states of matter, depending upon temperature and
pressure: gas, liquid, and solid (crystal). These states are separated by first-order phase …

The mechanical properties of crystalline materials can be quantitatively described by crystal
defects of solute atoms, dislocations, twins, and grain boundaries with the models of solid …
