Abstract
In-situ compression of Cu38Zr54Al8 metallic glass micropillars in a scanning electron microscope was performed together with continuous acoustic emission recording on samples in the as-cast state and after pre-deformation by high pressure torsion. A size effect was detected in both shear band operation and acoustic emission signal, irrespective of the preliminary deformation. This phenomenon was explained by the size dependent compliance of the pillar/indenter system. Differences between acoustic emission signals from the as-cast and pre-deformed states indicated changes in the shear band formation mechanism due to high pressure torsion. These differences were clear in the elastic regime of the in-situ compression and supported the role of rejuvenation in stabilization of unstable shear bands.
