Deskripsi

Directly relating the mechanical properties of metallic glasses to their atomic structure remains a challenge. Here, the authors use high resolution microscopy to show many mechanical properties of metallic glasses depend on a single structural parameter, the characteristic length of spatial heterogeneity.
