Pair Analysis

An n-body potential is first constructed for the Zr–Al system and proven to be realistic by reproducing a number of important properties of the system. Applying the constructed potential, molecular dynamics simulations, chemical short-range order (CSRO) calculation, and Honeycutt and Anderson (HA) pair analysis are carried out to study the Zr–Al metallic glasses. It is found that for the binary Zr–Al system, metallic glasses are energetically favored to be formed within composition range of 35–75 at.% Al. The calculation shows that the CSRO parameter is negative and could be up to −0.17, remarkably indicating that there exists a chemical short-range order in the Zr–Al metallic glasses. The HA pair analysis also reveals that there are diverse short-range packing units in the Zr–Al metallic glasses, in which icosahedra and icosahedra/face-centered cubic (fcc)-defect structures are predominant.

The molecular dynamics simulation studies on the microstructure evolution properties of amorphous Ca7Mg3 alloy during the isothermal annealing have been performed. The simulated structure factor S(q) of Ca7Mg3 is well agreed with the experimental data. Results indicate that the metallic glass of Ca7Mg3 alloy is relaxed into amorphous structure of greater stability in which much more icosahedron structures is formed; interestingly, it is also found that the short short-range order has no change, while the short-range order of the system increases during the isothermal annealing process.
