Caption

These images shows the atomic configuration of (a) metallic glasses (MGs), (b) nanoglass (NG) with grain size of 5 nm, (c) nanoglass/metallic glass/nanoglass sandwich structure, (d) MGs with flaw, and (e) MGs with symmetric notches, respectively. Shear banding, homogeneous superplastic flow, strong-and-ductile, flaw sensitivity, and necking and notch strengthening is observed from (a) to (e), respectively. Colors in (b) and (c) indicate the different grains.
