The amorphous structure of the alloys was confirmed using several techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The thermal characteristics obtained through DSC and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were employed to establish a correlation between the GFA and thermodynamics/kinetics factors. The (Cu50Zr43Al7)98Y2 BMG has a promising GFA of 15 mm diameter, i.e. a 50% increase in GFA compared to the base alloy. Several GFA indicators (, Trg, γ and K) confirm the excellent glass-forming capability of 2 at.% Y-doped BMG. The role of the optimum yttrium content in improving the GFA was scrutinized considering atomic, topological, and thermodynamics concepts.
