Abstract
Metallic glasses (amorphous alloys) are of considerable scientific and technological interest (reviewed in, e.g., (1)). They were first produced by rapid quenching of the melt (2), but other techniques can be used, including deposition by evaporation or sputtering. Alloys which have been produced in glassy form fall into two main categories: noble or transition metals with 15–25 atomic % of metalloids; and combinations of early and late transition metals, which typically form glasses over wider composition ranges.
