Abstract

Rapidly solidified micron and submicron size droplets of Al-14 a/o Mn have been used to study the possibility of glass formation and nucleation behavior of icosahedral phase. Homogeneous nucleation of icosahedral phase is assumed, based on the high grain density (>1015 mm−3). Extremely low nucleation resistance of icosahedral phase can be understood when possible topological similarities between liquid and icosahedral quasicrystal structures are considered. Configurationally frozen liquid in Al-Mn and similar alloy systems is questionable, implying that Al-Mn “glass” probably has a microquasicrystalline structure.
