General 2.5 power law of metallic glasses
Abstract
Metallic glass (MG) is an important new category of materials, but very few rigorous laws are currently known for defining its “disordered” structure. Recently we found that under compression, the volume ( V ) of an MG changes precisely to the 2.5 power of its principal diffraction peak position (1/ q 1 ). In the present study, we find that this 2.5 power law holds even through the first-order polyamorphic transition of a Ce 68 Al 10 Cu 20 Co 2 MG. This transition is, in effect, the equivalent of a continuous “composition” change of 4 f -localized “big Ce” to 4 f -itinerant “small Ce,” indicating the 2.5 power law is general for tuning with composition. The exactness and universality imply that the 2.5 power law may be a general rule defining the structure of MGs.
