Figure 1: Time dependence of potential energy during annealing at different temperatures for three independent samples.

From: Abnormal correlation between phase transformation and cooling rate for pure metals

Figure 1

The different color lines represent the potential energies at different temperatures. The red curve represents a typical TTT diagram, showing the relationship between the onset time of the potential energy drop and the temperature. The critical cooling rates Rc for the glass transitions are estimated to be (a) 2.2 × 1012K s−1, (b) 5.1 × 1012K s−1, and (c) 5.3 × 1012K s−1, respectively.
