    摘要: An information storage system includes a memory medium having a layer of an amorphously transformable, stable metal upon a substrate, a laser or other directed energy source for changing the state of discrete regions of the layer between the amorphous and the crystalline states, in a controllable pattern to store information in the pattern, a beam source to cause X-ray or electron emission from a local region of the metallic layer, and an X-ray or electron detector for analyzing X-rays or electrons from the region to determine whether the region is amorphous or crystalline. Discrete regions are transformed to the amorphous state by heating them above the melting point and permitting them to solidify rapidly. Those regions are transformed back to the crystalline state by heating them above their crystalline transformation temperature, but not above the melting point, using the laser operating at a reduced power level.

    摘要: A reinforcement-containing metal-matrix composite material is formed by dispersing pieces of reinforcement material throughout a melt of a bulk-solidifying amorphous metal and solidifying the mixture at a sufficiently high rate that the solid metal matrix is amorphous. Dispersing is typically accomplished either by melting the metal and mixing the pieces of reinforcement material into the melt, or by providing a mass of pieces of the reinforcement material and infiltration of the molten amorphous metal into the mass. The metal preferably has a composition of about that of a eutectic composition, and most preferably has a composition, in atomic percent, of from about 45 to about 67 percent total of zirconium plus titanium, from about 10 to about 35 percent beryllium, and from about 10 to about 38 percent total of copper plus nickel.

    摘要: A torsionally reacting spring, such as a helical spring, a torsion bar, or a torsion tube, requires the ability to torsionally deform elastically during service and return to its original, undeformed shape. The torsionally reacting spring is made of a bulk-deforming amorphous alloy which may be cooled from the melt at a cooling rate of less than about 500.degree. C. per second, yet retain an amorphous structure. A preferred bulk-solidifying amorphous alloy has a composition, in atomic percent, of from about 45 to about 67 percent total of zirconium plus titanium, from about 10 to about 35 percent beryllium, and from about 10 to about 38 percent total of copper plus nickel, plus incidental impurities, the total of the percentages being 100 atomic percent.

    摘要: A diamond-containing metal-matrix composite material is formed by dispersing pieces of diamond throughout a melt of a bulk-solidifying amorphous metal and solidifying the mixture. The mixture may then be remelted and resolidified at a rate sufficiently high that the metal matrix retains an amorphous structure upon cooling.

The diamond is preferably low-grade or artificial diamond.

    摘要: A process for bonding together two or more pieces of material, at least one of which is an amorphous material, wherein an intermediate interlayer is placed between the two pieces and the assembly is hot pressed at a temperature above the melting point of the interlayer but below the crystallization temperature of the amorphous piece. The composition of the interlayer is chosen so that the elements diffusing into the pieces being bonded are compatible with retention of the amorphous structure. When the bonding operation is carried to completion, no evidence of the interlayer as a separate phase remains. Alternatively, the bonding operation may be halted before completion and the interlayer will remain as a separate, observable phase. For bonding hard metal amorphous materials, alloys of aluminum with silver, gold, silicon and germanium, and alloys of gold with silicon, with the addition of fluxing elements such as phosphorus and boron, have been found to provide particularly satisfactory results.
