    摘要: Methods of fabricating a free standing thin film of shape memory alloy material, and products made by the methods. A sacrificial layer of a metallic material is deposited onto the surface of a substrate. Then an amorphous shape memory alloy is sputter deposited onto the outer surface of the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is etched away, leaving the thin film free standing, that is separated from the substrate. The thin film is annealed by heating into a crystalline state, with the annealing step carried out either after the film has been separated from the substrate, or while remaining attached to it.

    摘要: A molten alloy having an amorphous forming ability is pressure-solidified at a pressure exceeding one atmospheric pressure to eliminate casting defects. The cooling rate during the solidification is adjusted to disperse fine crystals having a mean crystal grain diameter of 1 nm to 50 &mgr;m and a volume percentage of 5 to 40% in an amorphous alloy ingot. In this way, a uniform residual compressive stress is imparted in the amorphous alloy ingot. Furthermore, the amorphous ingot produced by this method can be strengthened by heating it at a constant temperature rising rate to infiltrate at least one of boron, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine from the surface of the amorphous alloy ingot in a supercooled liquid state before crystallization, to thereby precipitate a high melting point compound thereof with an element forming the amorphous alloy within the alloy ingot so as to strength the alloy.

    摘要: A composite metal object comprises ductile crystalline metal particles in an amorphous metal matrix. An alloy is heated above its liquidus temperature. Upon cooling from the high temperature melt, the alloy chemically partitions, forming dendrites in the melt. Upon cooling the remaining liquid below the glass transition temperature it freezes to the amorphous state, producing a two-phase microstructure containing crystalline particles in an amorphous metal matrix. The ductile metal particles have a size in the range of from 0.1 to 15 micrometers and spacing in the range of from 0.1 to 20 micrometers. Preferably, the particle size is in the range of from 0.5 to 8 micrometers and spacing is in the range of from 1 to 10 micrometers. The volume proportion of particles is in the range of from 5 to 50% and preferably 15 to 35%. Differential cooling can produce oriented dendrites of ductile metal phase in an amorphous matrix. Examples are given in the Zr—Ti—Cu—Ni—Be alloy bulk glass forming system with added niobium.

A composition includes an amorphous matrix forming element (e.g., Al or Fe); at least one transition metal element; and at least one crystallizing agent that is insoluble in the resulting amorphous matrix. During devitrification, the crystallizing agent causes the formation of a high density nanocrystal dispersion.
