Abstract

In the last NATO-ASI on “Liquid and Amorphous Metals” 1979 in Zwiesel my paper on “Ferromagnetism in Amorphous Metals came to the conclusion: “The similarity of intrinsic magnetic properties in the amorphous and crystalline state indicates, that the situation in the first coordination shell is more important than long range order. The directional d-d bonds and the screening by attached metalloid atoms stabilize the atomic structure in the first coordination shell so strongly that it survives melting and the usual preparation methods for amorphous materials. The most probable fundamental cluster is a closely packed tetrahedron of transition atoms.” (1) The Bernal-Model and Radial Distribution Functions were then very fashionable for describing the structure of amorphous metals.
