Abstract The amorphous metallic state may be obtained by a number of methods such as vapour deposition, ion-beam implantation and mixing, and by rapid solidification of liquid metals. New metastable phases may be derived from the amorphous state. This paper reviews the type and nature of some of these metastable phases. In particular, it will be shown that the metastable bc tetragonal Fe3B phase may be related to the presence of simple unit cells in the amorphous phase. Fe3B may also be found in a conventionally cast material.
