Overlapping Unit Cells in 3d Quasicrystal Structure
نویسنده
چکیده
A 3-dimensional quasiperiodic lattice with overlapping unit cells is constructed using grid and projection methods pioneered by de Bruijn. Using Kronecker’s theorem the frequencies of all possible types of overlapping are found.

Direct 3D imaging of Al70.4Pd21Mn8.6 quasicrystal local atomic structure by X-ray holography
Inverse x-ray fluorescence holography was used to explore the local atomic order of a nearly perfect quasicrystal with composition Al70. 4Pd21Mn8.6. We have demonstrated the possibility of direct 3D imaging of the atomic decoration in a quasicrystal. We have obtained the average 3D environment of selected coordination shells around the Mn atoms. These results open the way to obtaining further a...
متن کاملStructure Analysis of a Hyper-Complex Approximant to Icosahedral Quasicrystal using 3D Electron Diffraction Tomography
Analyzing the crystal structure of approximants is of vital importance in deriving structural information of building units (or basic clusters) and their arrangements toward icosahedral quasicrystals (IQCs). The acquired knowledge is essential in performing a hyper-space modeling, which is the only feasible way of today to elucidate the structural details of IQC’s. Since approximants are period...
متن کاملOptimization of Thermalisation Loss in the Quantum Dot Solar Cells using a Finite Element Method
As thermalisation loss is the dominant loss process in the quantum dot intermediate band solar cells (QD-IBSCs), it has been investigated and calculated for a QD-IBSC, where IB is created by embedding a stack of InAs(1-x) Nx QDs with a square pyramid shape in the intrinsic layer of the AlPySb(1-y) p-i-n structure. IB, which is an optically coupled but electrically isolated mini-band, divides th...
متن کاملComparison of the Ex Vivo Expansion of UCB-Derived CD34+ in 3D DBM/MBA Scaffolds with USSC as a Feeder Layer
Objective(s): Ex vivo expansion of hematopoitic stem cells is an alternative way to increase umbilical cord blood (UCB)-CD34+ cells for bone marrow transplantation. For this purpose demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and mineralized bone allograft (MBA) as two scaffolds based on bone matrix and stem cell niche, were simultaneously used to enhance the effect of human mesenchymal pro...
متن کاملDecellularized kidney in the presence of chondroitin sulfate as a natural 3D scaffold for stem cells
Objective(s): Use of biological scaffolds and automating the cells directing process with materials such as growth factors and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in a certain path may have beneficial effects in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in future. In this research, chondroitin sulfate sodium was used for impregnation of the scaffolds. It is a critical component in extracellular matrix...
