Metastable quasicrystal-induced nucleation in a bulk glass-forming liquid

This study presents a unique Mg-based alloy composition in the Mg–Zn–Yb system which exhibits bulk metallic glass, metastable icosahedral quasicrystals (iQCs), and crystalline approximant phases in the as-cast condition. Microscopy revealed a smooth gradual transition from glass to QC. We also repor...
