Abstract

We analyzed the failure characteristics of the metallic glass Co43Fe20Ta5.5B31.5 (at.%) deformed in bending. The nanoscale fracture surface morphology respects the micromechanisms of the failure of the amorphous structure. The fracture surfaces consist of nanosized dimples (40 nm) arranged in the lines respecting the periodic corrugation zones oriented perpendicular to the crack propagation direction. The corrugation topology exhibits the point nature of the generation site, the concentric form of the stress waves and their interference.
