Molecular dynamics simulation has been used to investigate the effect of pressure on the formation of glassy Cu. The results indicate that a higher pressure leads to a strong crystallization tendency during cooling. The glassy Cu formed under high pressures contains more crystal cluster and has a higher degree of order.
