An amorphous metal (also known as metallic glass or glassy
metal) is a solid metallic material, usually an alloy, with a
disordered atomic-scale structure. Most metals are crystalline
in their solid state, which means they have a highly ordered
arrangement of atoms. Amorphous metals are non-crystalline,
and have a glass-like structure. But unlike common glasses, such
as window glass, which are typically electrical insulators,
amorphous metals have good electrical conductivity. There are
several ways in which amorphous metals can be produced,
including extremely rapid cooling, physical vapor deposition,
solid-state reaction, ion irradiation, and mechanical alloying.
