Solid samples of (SnkGe1− k)36Cu64 with different tin concentrations were produced by the Splat Cooling technique. The melted material was cooled down from different initial temperatures (T0). These samples were analyzed by Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results are compared with those obtained in similar measurements on the annealed samples and on the slowly cooled material. The fast quenched samples were all polycrystallines. The resultant phases are analized and a memory effect of the liquid state in the solid material is discussed.
