Anisotropy of small-angle neutron scattering in metallic glasses

2014 SANS in metallic glasses is anisotropic and depends on the orientation of the ribbons. Pd-based melt-spun and Nibased electrochemically deposited glasses exhibit different anisotropies. Both glasses contain scattering centres of the order of 40 nm wide in the ribbon plane. In the melt-spun alloy, the scatterers are very thin along the thickness perpendicular to the substrate. In the deposited alloy however, the defects are long along the thickness perpendicular to the electrode. J.
