Metallic glasses (MGs) are at the cutting-edge of materials research in advanced applications such as nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS). The overall mechanical response of MGs is a combination of their intrinsic properties, e.g. chemical composition, atomistic structure, etc., and extrinsic factors, e.g. sample size, structural flaws, and structural hierarchy. Here, we report our recent works on fabrication and in situ fracture testing of nanosize MG structures with geometries ranging from simple nanopillars to complex nanolattices, i.e. metamaterials [1-3]. We also employ large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to reveal insights into the underlying atomistic mechanisms of the rich spectrum of deformation modes. We demonstrate the importance of processing and post-processing conditions in achieving MGs with certain intrinsic features such as atomic-level structure. We show that an extrinsic flaw (notch) can shift the failure mode from shear banding to cavitation and crack propagation [2]. We further present that in hollow-tube nanolattices, the shell thicknesses leads to a unique transition in deformation mode [3].
