 This research proposes a novel method of introducing chemical heterogeneity into metallic glasses to improve their mechanical stability. By incorporating different elements into the same alloy, the researchers created a material with two distinct regions of composition. This allowed them to observe how the material responded to compression and tension, and they found that it was able to undergo highly homogeneous plastic deformation without any signs of fracture or cracking. Additionally, the researchers observed that the material's atomic structure changed as it deformed, which further enhanced its strength and resilience.
