Abstract

Abstract The β ‐relaxation is one of the major dynamic behaviors in metallic glasses (MGs) and exhibits diverse features. Despite decades of efforts, the understanding of its structural origin and contribution to the overall dynamics of MG systems is still unclear. Here two palladium‐based Pd─Cu─P and Pd─Ni─P MGs are reported with distinct different β ‐relaxation behaviors and reveal the structural origins for the difference using the advanced X‐ray photon correlation spectroscopy and absorption fine structure techniques together with the first‐principles calculations. The pronounced β ‐relaxation and fast atomic dynamics in the Pd─Cu─P MG mainly come from the strong mobility of Cu atoms and their locally favored structures. In contrast, the motion of Ni atoms is constrained by P atoms in the Pd─Ni─P MG, leading to the weakened β ‐relaxation peak and sluggish dynamics. The correlation of atomic dynamics with microscopic structures provides a way to understand the structural origins of different dynamic behaviors as well as the nature of aging in disordered materials.
