Abstract

There are numerous processing methods available for the fabrication of rapidly-solidified metastable alloys. Examples include splat quenching, melt-spinning, surface melting and quenching, melt atomization and solidification, and deposition by sputtering and evaporation. Experimental aspects of each of these fabrication methods will be discussed. These include solidification and quench rate, process control, and final product morphology and microstructure. Some properties of an amorphous alloy prepared by several of these processing methods will be discussed.
