Abstract

Free volume Metallic glass Plastic deformation Structural relaxation Synchrotron radiation
Changes in thermal expansion coefficient and excess free volume content during in situ heating–cooling cycles of metallic glasses in the as-quenched state and after indentation were measured in the temperature range between 350 and 670 K by real-time diffraction. It was found that deformation produced by an array of ball indentations generate more than 37% increase of free volume in Zr-based glassy ribbons.
