Order-disorder transition in a Cd-Ca quasicrystal approximant
Recent experiments discovered an order-disorder transition occuring at very low temperatures in large unit cell approximants of the stable Cd-based binary alloy quasicrystals. The transition is related to correlations among orientational degrees of freedom whose separations are 12 Å. The orientational degrees of freedom represent a type of phason disorder within the unit cells of these large ap...
متن کاملNew building blocks in the 2/1 crystalline approximant of a Bergman-type icosahedral quasicrystal.
The refined x-ray crystal structure of the phase Mg(27)Al(10.7(2))Zn(47.3(2)) (Pa3) establishes it as the new 2/1 Bergman-type approximant of the icosahedral quasicrystal. The primitive cubic lattice consists of condensed triacontahedral and novel prolate rhombohedral (PR) clusters. Each triacontahedron encapsulates the traditional, multiply endohedral Bergman-type clusters, and each PR encapsu...
متن کاملOrder-disorder transition in the Cd-Ca cubic approximant
Recent experiments discovered an order-disorder transition occuring at low temperatures in large unit 1/1 cell cubic approximants of the stable Cd-based binary alloy quasicrystals. The transition is related to correlations among orientational degrees of freedom whose separations are around 12 Å. We analyze the interactions between the degrees of freedom using ab-initio calculations for Cd-Ca al...
متن کاملA complicated quasicrystal approximant ∊16 predicted by the strong-reflections approach
The structure of a complicated quasicrystal approximant epsilon(16) was predicted from a known and related quasicrystal approximant epsilon(6) by the strong-reflections approach. Electron-diffraction studies show that in reciprocal space, the positions of the strongest reflections and their intensity distributions are similar for both approximants. By applying the strong-reflections approach, t...
متن کاملA study of the phase Mg2Cu6Ga5, isotypic with Mg2Zn11. A route to an icosahedral quasicrystal approximant.
The new title compound was synthesized by high-temperature means and its X-ray structure refined in the cubic space group Pm3macro, Z = 3, a = 8.278(1) A. The structure exhibits a 3-D framework made from a Ga(14) and Mg network within which large and small cavities are occupied by centered GaCu(12) icosahedral and Cu(6) octahedral clusters, respectively. The clusters are well bonded within the ...
