The self-diffusivity of Be in the bulk metallic amorphous alloy Zr{sub 41.2}Ti{sub 13.8}Cu{sub 12.5}Ni{sub 10}Be{sub 22.5} is investigated. Below the glass transition temperature the data suggest a single atomic jump diffusion behavior of Be. By taking into account the change in configurational entropy due to the glass transition, we explain the mechanism for diffusion of Be in the supercooled liquid state (i.e., above the glass transition) of Zr{sub 41.2}Ti{sub 13.8}Ni{sub 10}Cu{sub 12.5}Be{sub 22.5} by single atomic jumps in a slowly changing configuration of neighboring atoms.
