Real-time, high-resolution study of nanocrystallization and fatigue cracking in a cyclically strained metallic glass

Metallic glasses (MGs) exhibit greater elastic limit and stronger resistance to plastic deformation than their crystalline metal counterparts. Their capacity to withstand plastic straining is further enhanced at submicrometer length scales. For a range of microelectromechanical applications, the res...
