In this article, the authors report the observation of shear bands and perfectly plastic behavior, typical of metallic glasses, in an Fe-Cu alloy with grain sizes in the 100 nm range. A strengthening effect with decreasing grain size was also observed, and the shear bands occurred on planes oriented at about 40 deg from the tensile axis instead of the maximum shear plane of 45 deg, as has been observed in amorphous polymers.
