Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating nickel-boron metallic glass nanoparticles using colloidal synthesis, which successfully shows uniform deformation at room temperature.
- Compression tests reveal that smaller nanoparticles (90 nm) experience shear banding, while larger ones (up to 260 nm) deform more uniformly.
- The researchers link the differences in mechanical behavior to the internal structure and atomic bonding of the particles, suggesting that their ductility is influenced by specific atomic arrangements.
