metallic glasses is localised in thin shear bands. In order to
comprehensively understand deformation mechanisms of BMGs, it is
necessary to investigate formation of shear bands and related deformation.
Nano-indentation studies with a spherical indenter were carried out to
characterise shear-band localisation on a surface of Zr-Cu-based metallic
glass. The load-displacement diagram of an indentation cycle reflects an
elastic deformation followed by the first pop-in at around 4 mN. In
addition, an alternative technique is proposed to characterise a plasticity
mechanism through the evolution of localised shear bands beneath the
indentation – wedge indentation. It is found that a hemicylindrical region of
shear bands is formed beneath the indentation zone in this case.
