Decelerated aging in metallic glasses by low temperature thermal cycling

  • Differential scanning calorimetry measurements on different bulk metallic glasses show no measurable rejuvenation upon deeply cooled (cryogenic) thermal cycling. This applies both to as-quenched and well-annealed samples. Extensive molecular dynamics simulations of a generic model glass former corroborate these observations. We disentangle the effects of aging from those of thermal treatment and show that aging is slowed down but not stopped-neither reversed-during thermal cycling. These observations are corroborated further by a survey of energy distribution, which continues narrowing, albeit with a smaller rate.
