Abstract
We show that the diverse dynamic responses of viscosity of the supercooled liquid near the glass transition temperature can be inherited to glassy state and expressed in the discrepancy of stress relaxation, demonstrating a structural heterogeneous basis for fragility. The metallic glasses with diverse dynamics and structural heterogeneities manifesting in different densities and distributions of flow units can be classified and characterized in terms of a parameter n, which can be readily determined through stress relaxation method and is comparable to the kinetic fragility m of the supercooled liquid. The parameter can classify diverse metallic glasses and also benefits for understanding the correlation between the structural and dynamical heterogeneities of the metallic glasses.
