Pair distribution function, coordination number, HA index and Voronoi polyhedra were used to describe the detailed local structure of this alloy. It was revealed Co7TalB2, Co6TalB2 and CosTa2B4 among the dominant (0 3 6 0), (0 4 4 0), (0 1 10 2) and (0 3 6 4) polyhedra were the basic local structure units in CossTal0B3s amorphous alloy. Furthermore, most of the dominant poly- hedra tended to have Ta atoms involved and these polyhedra may have a critical role during glass formation.展开更多
