Abstract

The glass forming ranges of cobalt-base binary and ternary thin film alloys containing zirconium, titanium, niobium, molybdenum, vanadium and silicon have been studied in the cobalt-rich region. The minimum solute concentration for glass formation decreased with increasing difference in atomic radii or Pauling's electronegativity, as well as the cooling rate. Cobalt-base binary alloys readily showing glass formation are shown on the glass formation diagram. The values of atomic size effect in alloys sputtered at room temperature were about 0.065, and decreased with increase of cooling rate. The value was decreased in alloys having a large heat of formation. In ternary cobalt alloys containing zirconium, niobium, molybdenum and vanadium, the glass forming range could not be interpreted as the concept of atomic size effect alone.
