Crystallization of Ti<sub>33</sub>Cu<sub>67 </sub>metallic glass under high-current density electrical pulses

<p>Abstract</p> <p>We have studied the phase and structure evolution of the Ti<sub>33</sub>Cu<sub>67 </sub>amorphous alloy subjected to electrical pulses of high current density. By varying the pulse parameters, different stages of crystallization could be o...
