Key laboratory of extreme conditions

The work of the group of Amorphous Materials and Physics in the Institute of Physics (IOP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Beijing involves the following areas:

•solid state amorphization in multilayers;

•interdiffusion in multilayers;

•Formation of bulk amorphous, amorphous-based composites and nanocrystalline alloys
