Abstract
The atomic structure of the U85.7Fe14.3 metallic glasses is studied in terms of topological short range order, chemical short range order and medium range order using reverse Monte Carlo simulations. The existence of solute-centered clusters and Fe-enriched clusters clearly demonstrates a strong chemical short range order in both glasses. Two major types of medium range order are detected, one is the Fe-enriched super-clusters and the other is the close packing of the solute-centered clusters. Nevertheless, no existing model can be employed to fully describe the medium range order in U-based metallic glasses, indicating the structural complexity of these metallic glasses.
