Abstract

We have studied pulsed ruby laser melting of metallic glasses – Fe40Ni40P14B6 and Fe40Ni40B20. Both amorphous and crystallised samples were used, and some of them were implanted with Ru to serve as a marker species. SEM measurements on surface topography and RBS (1.8 MeV He+) depth profiling of Ru marker redistribution were used to establish melting above about 1 J/cm2. Heat flow calculations and liquid phase diffusion analysis of the Ru marker species under a moving melt front have been performed. The observed redistribution of Ru upto 2.5 J/cm2 is consistent with an effective D ∼ 5 × 10−5 cm2 s−1. The flat Ru depth profiles at higher energy densities are shown to arise from convection effects. Results on crystallised and amorphous samples are similar. Preliminary TEM measurements of quenched regions on a crystallised sample show an unexpected absence of amorphous phase.
