Plastic yielding in nanocrystalline Pd-Au alloys mimics universal behavior of metallic glasses

A. Leibner, C. Braun, J. Heppe +2

We studied solid solution effects on the mechanical properties of nanocrystalline (NC) ${\mathrm{Pd}}_{100-\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{Au}}_{\mathrm{x}}$ alloys ($0 \leq \mathrm{x} < 50 \math…
