Abstract
Recently, it was shown that mechanical deformation processes can completely crystallize some amorphous transition-metal–metalloid alloys. However, the mechanism is still unclear. We demonstrate here that, for the simpler amorphous Fe90Zr10 alloy, the basic thermodynamic differences between high-energy milling and rapid quenching, associated with a crystallization controlled by elemental diffusion, could be behind this structural transformation.
