The concept of nano-glasses is to combine the beneficial characteristics known from defects in a crystalline material with an amorphous structure of a glassy alloy, with a focus on the presence of glass-glass interfaces. The presented study investigates anomalous diffusion along such interfaces in magnetron-sputtered Cu60Zr40 columnar nanoglasses. A combination of the radiotracer technique and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy is used to measure the solute diffusion of Fe and self-diffusion of Zr atoms. The obtained results are directly compared to a homogenous glass with a similar composition, revealing enhanced diffusivities which are interpreted in terms of an excess free volume located at the glass-glass interfaces. The diffusion studies are directly supported by the structural observations made by TEM, documenting the existence of two different amorphous phases and correspondingly glass-glass interfaces in the columnar Cu-Zr nanoglass.
