Understanding the deformation-induced nanocrystallization in amorphous alloys at room temperature is proved to be a great challenge. In the present study, the formation of vacancy-type defects richly surrounded with Fe atoms in amorphous Nd9Fe85B6 subjected to room-temperature high-pressure torsion deformation is directly evidenced by positron lifetime measurements combined with a coincident Doppler broadening measurement of the positron-electron annihilation photons. This demonstrates a direct experimental evidence for shear inducing the enrichment of Fe atoms in the deformed amorphous alloy. These results presented here are of importance for understanding the deformation-induced nanocrystallization and for the technique development of nanocrystalline materials.
