Natural quasicrystal with decagonal symmetry
We report the first occurrence of a natural quasicrystal with decagonal symmetry. The quasicrystal, with composition Al71Ni24Fe5, was discovered in the Khatyrka meteorite, a recently described CV3 carbonaceous chondrite. Icosahedrite, Al63Cu24Fe13, the first natural quasicrystal to be identified, was found in the same meteorite. The new quasicrystal was found associated with steinhardtite (Al38...
متن کاملA new binary decagonal Frank-Kasper quasicrystal phase
A structure model of atoms of two sizes, interacting with Lennard-Jones potentials and simulated by molecular dynamics, was observed to freeze into a decagonal quasicrystal dominated by Frank-Kasper coordination shells and closely related to the Henley-Elser model for icosahedral quasicrystals. Idealized structure models can be described as decorations of triangle-rectangle and rhombus tilings....
متن کاملTernary Model of an Al-Cu-Co Decagonal Quasicrystal
We propose a structural model for decagonal Al-Cu-Co quasicrystals based upon existing experimental diffraction data supplemented by total energy calculations. The model is a decoration of tiles related to the Penrose rhombus tiling. Strong chemical ordering between Cu and Co leads to chains of alternating Cu and Co atoms. These chains project onto tile edges, where they define arrows. At low t...
متن کاملNew type of Al-based decagonal quasicrystal in Al60Cr20Fe10Si10 alloy.
A new kind of decagonal quasicrystal (DQC) with a periodicity of 1.23 nm was observed in the as-cast quaternary Al60Cr20Fe10Si10 alloy. The intensity distribution of some spots in the selected-area electron diffraction pattern along the tenfold zone axis was found to be different from other Al-based DQCs. High-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy was adopted to rev...
متن کاملFirst-principles prediction of a decagonal quasicrystal containing boron.
We interpret experimentally known B-Mg-Ru crystals as quasicrystal approximants whose deterministic decoration of tiles by atoms can be extended quasiperiodically. Experimentally observed disorder corresponds to phason fluctuations. First-principles total energy calculations find many distinct tilings close to stability and suggest a phase transition from a crystalline state at low temperatures...
