Abstract
Attributed to the characteristics of no size effect and good machinability, metallic glasses are considered to be ideal materials for micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). In this paper, two kinds of thin film metallic glasses (TFMGs), the Zr-based (Zr/sub 75/Cu/sub 19/Al/sub 6/, atomic %) and the Pd-based (Pd/sub 76/Cu/sub 6/Si/sub 18/) TFMGs were fabricated using RF-magnetron sputtering system, and the amorphicity of the as-sputtered TFMGs were verified by X-ray diffraction and electron diffraction patterns. Compositions of the TFMGs were analyzed by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry. Meanwhile, the thermal, mechanical and electrical properties of the TFMGs were experimentally examined, which provide an important guide for the analysis and design of their MEMS applications.
