Abstract

When bulk ferromagnetic Fe80P13C7 amorphous rods of approximately 2-mm diameter are compacted together in a hot press, a variety of different microstructures, depending on the experimental conditions, are produced. The most intriguing microstructure is that two different bulk amorphous rods can be fused together perfectly at a temperature of 683 K and under a pressure of 2.5 to 4 GPa for a period of 5 min.
