Here, we successfully welded two bulk metallic glass (BMG) materials, Zr₅₁Ti₅Ni₁₀Cu₂₅Al₉ and Zr_50.7Cu₂₈Ni₉Al_12.3 (at. %), using a liquid-solid joining process. An atomic-scale metallurgical bonding between two BMGs can be achieved. The interface has a transition layer of ~50 μm thick. In conclusion, the liquid-solid joining of BMGs can shed more insights on overcoming their size limitation resulting from their limited glass-forming ability and then promoting their applications in structural components.
