We found out a novel Ru-Zr-Al thin film metallic glass by combinatorial arc plasma deposition (CAPD). To search for Ru-based thin film metallic glasses, first, a library of 1,089 CAPD samples was deposited, of which fifteen amorphous samples were selected by X-ray diffractometry. The compositions of these samples were measured by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Front the fifteen samples, two samples having low Al content (Ru65Zr30Al5 and Ru67Zr25Al8, at. %) were chosen, and their compositions were reproduced in samples deposited by sputtering, because the CAPD samples were too small for evaluating the glass transition temperature T-g and crystallization temperature T-x by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC revealed that the two sputter-deposite samples Ru65Zr30Al5 and Ru67Zr25Al8 had a supercooled liquid region (SCLR), showing a T-g, T-x, and width of SCLR Delta T-x (= T-x-T-g) of 902, 973, and 71 K in the case of Ru65Zr30Al5, and 913, 979, and 66 K in the case of Ru67Zr25Al8, respectively. Moreover, the sputter-deposited samples Ru65Zr30Al5 and Ru67Zr25Al8 exhibited superior mechanical properties. The fracture stress sigma(f), elastic limit epsilon(1), and Young's modulus E were 1.9 GPa, 2.0% and 92.7 GPa, respectively, for Ru65Zr30Al5 and 1.9 GPa, 2.0%, and 91.6 GPa, respectively, for Ru67Zr25Al8.
