Structural Disorder in Quasicrystals [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2020
One of the challenges of modern crystallography of complex systems (complex metallic alloys, proteins, aperiodic crystals and quasicrystals) is to properly describe the disorder in these systems and discuss correctly the refinement results in terms of ...

Three-Dimensional and Two-Dimensional Green Tensors of Piezoelectric Quasicrystals

open access: yesCrystals
In this work, within the framework of the linear piezoelectricity theory of quasicrystals, the three-dimensional and two-dimensional Green tensors for arbitrary piezoelectric quasicrystals are derived.

Stability of Two-Dimensional Soft Quasicrystals

open access: yes, 2015
The relative stability of two-dimensional soft quasicrystals is examined using a recently developed projection method which provides a unified numerical framework to compute the free energy of periodic crystal and quasicrystals. Accurate free energies of

Line Defects in Two-Dimensional Dodecagonal Quasicrystals

open access: yesMathematics
In this work, line defects in two-dimensional dodecagonal quasicrystals are investigated. Using the ten-dimensional framework of the integral formalism of two-dimensional quasicrystals, the closed-form solutions for the displacement fields and stress ...

Large spatial Goos-Hänchen shifts from quasicrystals with graphene

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
We investigate the spatial Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift of reflected beam from quasicrystals composed of Fibonacci dielectrics and graphene. The quasicrystals are composed of two symmetrical Fibonacci dielectrics and graphene is embedded in the center of the ...

Defects in Quasicrystals

open access: yes, 1989
There are several incentives to identify the analogues of dislocations and disclinations in quasicrystals. Penrose patterns are two-dimensional systems, and according to phase space counting fluctuations of the atomic displacements are so strong that exact long-range order is reduced to quasi-longrange order just as in periodic crystals.

Proliferation of anomalous symmetries in colloidal monolayers subjected to quasiperiodic light fields

open access: yes, 2010
Quasicrystals provide a fascinating class of materials with intriguing properties. Despite a strong potential for numerous technical applications, the conditions under which quasicrystals form are still poorly understood.

Observation of Log-Periodic Oscillations in the Quantum Dynamics of Electrons on the One-Dimensional Fibonacci Quasicrystal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We revisit the question of quantum dynamics of electrons on the off-diagonal Fibonacci tight-binding model. We find that typical dynamical quantities, such as the probability of an electron to remain in its original position as a function of time ...

Precipitation of multi-type nano-quasicrystals in a Mg-Zn-Y alloy

open access: yesJournal of Magnesium and Alloys
Mg-6Zn-1Y (at.%) ribbons with strengthening precipitates of multi-type nanoquasicrystals were prepared by melt-spinning followed by aging treatments. Microstructural evolution of the rapidly solidified ribbons during isothermal aging was comprehensively ...
