But if the motor was made from a special kind of material known as an amorphous metal, your fingers would be spared. The atoms in such metals are randomly arranged — imparting them with unique ...

The first X-ray strain measurements in amorphous metals allow for new understanding of complex glassy materials. Amorphous materials such as glass fibres and bulk metallic glasses are widely used ...

including difficult-to-synthesize ultra-thin amorphous metal oxides such as aluminum and rhodium. This breakthrough, ...
