In-situ SEM image at strain of 0%, 5%, and 10% for micro-pillars of (a1–a3) Pt42.5Pd0, (b1–b3) Pt22.5Pd20, and (c1–c3) Pt0Pd42.5 amorphous alloys; post compression SEM images for (a4) Pt42.5Pd0, (b4) Pt22.5Pd20, and (c4) Pt0Pd42.5 alloys indicating multiple shear band formation for Pt42.5Pd0 in contrast to one major shear band for Pt0Pd42.5 alloy.
