Crystallization kinetics of electrodeposited amorphous Co-P alloys

We have studied the crystallisation of Co-P alloys in a large compositional range (13-35% at P). The samples with higher percentage of P show a polymorphous transformation to a single crystalline phase (Co2P) with a very significant texture. Eutectic crystallisation, as important as the percentage of Co is was detected in the samples with P contents similar or lower to the eutectic equilibrium.
