Quasicrystals: What do we know? What do we want to know? What can we know?

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances, 2018
The state of the art of quasicrystal research is critically reviewed. Fundamental questions that are still unanswered are discussed and experimental limitations are considered.

A Guide to Mathematical Quasicrystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This introductory survey deals with mathematical and physical properties of discrete structures such as point sets and tilings. The emphasis is on proper generalizations of concepts and ideas from classical crystallography. In particular, we focus on their interplay with various physically motivated equivalence concepts such as local ...

Growing Perfect Decagonal Quasicrystals by Local Rules

open access: yes, 2007
A local growth algorithm for a decagonal quasicrystal is presented. We show that a perfect Penrose tiling (PPT) layer can be grown on a decapod tiling layer by a three dimensional (3D) local rule growth. Once a PPT layer begins to form on the upper layer,

Quasicrystals and Almost Periodicity [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2005
We introduce a topology ${\cal T}$ on the space $U$ of uniformly discrete subsets of the Euclidean space. Assume that $S$ in $U$ admits a unique autocorrelation measure. The diffraction measure of $S$ is purely atomic if and only if $S$ is almost periodic in $(U,{\cal T})$. This result relates idealized quasicrystals to almost periodicity.

Magnetic quasicrystals: What can we expect to see in their neutron diffraction data?

open access: yes, 1999
The theory of magnetic symmetry in quasicrystals is used to characterize the nature of magnetic peaks, expected in elastic neutron diffraction experiments.

Spiky density of states in large complex Al-Mn phases

open access: yes, 2008
First-principle electronic structure calculations have been performed in crystalline complex phases mu-Al4Mn and lambda-Al4Mn using the TB-LMTO method.

Precipitation of binary quasicrystals along dislocations

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Dislocations in crystals naturally break the symmetry of the bulk, introducing local atomic configurations with symmetries such as fivefold rings. But dislocations do not usually nucleate aperiodic structure along their length.
