Additional information
For the first time, it was reported that by subjecting bulk metallic glass (BMG) materials to micro-second and pico-second laser processing, it is possible to retain their short-range atomic ordering. Thus, it was experimentally proven that laser machining/structuring can be applied as a cost-effective manufacturing route for producing both replication masters and parts in BMG materials without triggering any crystallisation and thus retaining their very attractive mechanical and physical properties. The paper was selected as a research highlight in Nature Photonics “Technology Focus” May 2009.
