Al-La-Ni-Fe alloys of three different compositions (Al82La10Ni4Fe4, Al85La9Ni3Fe3 and Al88La6Ni3Fe3) were prepared high-energy milling in a planetary ball-mill (AGO-2). Complete amorphization was observed for the Al82La10Ni4Fe4 alloy after milling for 350 h at a rotational speed of 300 rpm. In contrast, the Al85La9Ni3Fe3 and Al88La6Ni3Fe3 powders contained the FCC Al phase even for prolonged milling. The amorphization tendency was found to increase in the order of Al88La6Ni3Fe3 < Al85La9Ni3Fe3 < Al82La10Ni4Fe4, which may well be ascribed to the increasing atomic size mismatch of the constituent elements on La addition. DSC analyses of amorphous samples revealed two-stage crystallization processes for all three alloys, however, with strong variations in the thermal stability upon compositional changes. As observed by SEM, amorphous powders consisted of particles with nearly spherical shape and diameters ranging from 5 to 20 µm.

We present a novel technique for resolving the problem of radical size mismatch at the time of orthotopic transplantation. A 48-year-old man presented with chronic rheumatic heart disease and a giant left atrium. Twenty-three years before, he had undergone mitral valve replacement with a mechanical prosthesis. At the time of the repeated intervention, the volume of his left atrium was 350 mL. Surgical features of the transplantation included approximation of the pulmonary vein ostia by gathering sutures intentionally, in order to decrease the area of the left atrial posterior wall and thereby enable appropriate coaptation with the donor left atrium. After the operation, left atrial volume had been reduced to 60 mL.

Co3+ doping in BiFeO3 is expected to be an effective method for improving its magnetic properties. In this work, pristine BiFeO3 (BFO) and doped BiFe1-xCoxO3 (BFCxO, x = 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07 and 0.10) composite thin films were successfully synthesized by a sol–gel technique. XRD and Raman spectra indicate that the Co3+ ions are substituted for the Fe3+ ion sites in the BFO rhombohedral lattice. Raman vibration of oxygen octahedron is obviously weakened due to the lattice distortion induced by the size mismatch between two B-site cations (Fe3+ and Co3+ ions), which has an impact on the magnetic properties of BFCxO. SEM images reveal a denser agglomeration in Co-doped samples. TEM results indicate that the average size of grains is reduced due to the Co3+ substitution. XPS measurements illustrate that the replacement of Fe3+ with Co3+ effectively suppresses the generation of oxygen defects and increases the concentration of Fe3+ ions at the B-site of perovskite lattice. Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements show that the remanent magnetization (Mr) of BFC0.07O (3.6 emu/cm3) and the saturation magnetization (Ms) of BFC0.10O (48.84 emu/cm3) thin film both increase by approximately two times at room temperature, compared with that of the pure BFO counterpart.

AbstractBulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are multicomponent alloys with typically three to five components with large atomic size mismatch and a composition close to a deep eutectic. Packing in BMG liquids is very dense, with a low content of free volume resulting in viscosities that are several orders of magnitude higher than in pure metal melts. The dense packing accomplished by structural and chemical atomic ordering also brings the BMG-forming liquid energetically and entropically closer to its corresponding crystalline state. These factors lead to slow crystallization kinetics and consequentially to high glass-forming ability. This article highlights the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of BMGs and their contributions to extraordinarily high glass-forming ability. Some possible links with mechanical properties are also suggested.
