First-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...
متن کاملPeriodic step arrays on the aperiodic i-Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystal surface at high temperature
We have observed the configuration and motion of surface steps on the aperiodic icosahedral (i-) Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystal using low-energy electron microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy. As the quasicrystal is cooled from high temperature, bulk vacancies migrate to the surface causing the surface to be etched. Surprisingly, this etching occurs by two types of steps with different heights mo...
متن کاملQuantum critical state in a magnetic quasicrystal.
Quasicrystals are metallic alloys that possess long-range, aperiodic structures with diffraction symmetries forbidden to conventional crystals. Since the discovery of quasicrystals by Schechtman et al. in 1984, there has been considerable progress in resolving their geometric structure. For example, it is well known that the golden ratio of mathematics and art occurs over and over again in thei...
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 کاملSolid-phase structures of the dzugutov pair potential.
In recent computer simulations of a simple monatomic system interacting via the Dzugutov pair potential, freezing of the fluid into an equilibrium dodecagonal quasicrystal has been reported [M. Dzugutov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 2924 (1993)]. Here, using a combination of molecular dynamics simulation and thermodynamic perturbation theory, we conduct a detailed analysis of the relative stabilities o...
