Abstract
The structural evolution of Cu45Zr45Ag10 metallic glass was investigated by in situ transmission electron microscopy heating experiments. The relationship between phase separation and crystallization was elucidated. Nucleation and growth-controlled nanoscale phase separation at early stage were seen to impede nanocrystallization, while a coarser phase separation via aggregation of Ag-rich nanospheres was found to promote the precipitation of Cu-rich nanocrystals. Coupling of composition and dynamics heterogeneities was supposed to play a key role during phase separation preceding crystallization.
