This paper reports that anomalous local order in liquid and glassy AlFeCe alloy has been detected by x-ray diffraction measurements.The addition of the element Ce has a great effect on this local structural order.The element Ce favours interpenetration of the icosahedra by sharing a common face and edges.It argues that frustration between this short-range order and the long-range crystalline order controls the glass-forming ability of these liquids.The obtained results suggest that a system having a stronger tendency to show local icosahedral order should be a better glass-former.This scenario also naturally explains the close relationship between the local icosahedral order in a liquid,glass-forming ability,and the nucleation barrier.Such topological local order has also been analysed directly using the reverse Monte Carlo method.It also estimated the fraction of local ordered and disordered structural units in a glassy AlFeCe alloy.
