Zusammenfassung:The crystallization behavior of self-supporting thin-film amorphous W-Ru, W-Re, and Ta-Ir alloys has been studied with transmission electron microscopy. Crystallization temperatures have been observed which are much lower than the temperatures predicted by a semiempirical model: the highest observed temperatures are 775 °C for W-Ru and W-Re alloys, and 900 °C for the Ta-Ir alloys. All three systems show maximum thermal stability at a composition expected using enthalpy considerations.
