Abstract

A model has been devised to derive the intermetallic structure from the bcc- Fe unit cell. The fundamental finding is of special interest because the recent investigation clarifies that there is substantial evidence that atomic arrangements of transition metal-rich amorphous alloys are made of distorted bcc structure. The disordered bcc structure is thermodynamically in a metastable state, the heat treatment leads by crystallization of amorphous alloys to a stable state. In the past, a great deal has been made to describe the process of crystallization of amorphous alloys, but unfortunately, the disordered bcc-Fe regions of amorphous alloys have been neglected. Since the crystallization process takes place from the disordered bcc-regions of amorphous state, it is advisable to reexamine, discuss, and, where necessary to modify the product of the crystallization by the experimental achievements. It is therefore the objective of the present investigation to devise a model based on experimental facts. The atomic size of metalloid atoms determines the crystallization and crystal growth of amorphous alloy. Regardless of their structure, Mössbauer investigation on Fe-rich Metal-Metalloid alloys indicates that the metalloid atoms such as B, P, C, and Ge tend to act with iron by spending their electrons into the Fe 3d-band.
