The deformation of crystalline Cu/Zr nano-layers under severe shearing was studied by using molecular dynamics simulations. The whole process can be divided into two distinct stages. The early stage of plasticity is governed by dislocations. The dislocation-interface interaction can induce the interface roughening and slow mechanical mixing around boundaries. As strain is further applied, dislocation activities become less active. Under the large strain, domains are further refined and finally the interfaces are attached locally, where solid-state crystal-to-amorphous transition occurs. The deformation mode then transforms from dislocation plasticity to amorphization. The following deformation is fully localized in the glass transition zone where a strong atomic mixing takes place. The whole crystal-to-amorphous transition process can be characterized by certain Voronoi cells, such as Cu-centered <0 0 12 0>. In addition, the amorphization in thinner layers can be achieved at smaller shear strain. Our work enriches the understanding of amorphization and mechanical alloying in heavily deformation multicomponent systems.
