Quasicrystals – A Paradigm Shift in Crystallography?

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2014
The discovery of quasicrystals had important consequences for our understanding of long-range order in thermodynamic equilibrium, the definition of the term 'crystal' as well as diffraction theory.

Floquet engineering of topological localization transitions and mobility edges in one-dimensional non-Hermitian quasicrystals

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
Time-periodic driving fields could endow a system with peculiar topological and transport features. In this work, we find dynamically controlled localization transitions and mobility edges in non-Hermitian quasicrystals via shaking the lattice ...

Quasicrystals

open access: yesJournal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 1985
We introduce the concept of quasicrystals and discuss their diffraction patterns. The idea of local isomorphism is argued to be a physically meaningful one.

Automatic Determination of Quasicrystalline Patterns from Microscopy Images

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This work introduces a user‐friendly machine learning tool to automatically extract and visualize quasicrystalline tiling patterns from atomically resolved microscopy images. It uses feature clustering, nearest‐neighbor analysis, and support vector machines. The method is broadly applicable to various quasicrystalline systems and is released as part of

Formation of ethylene-vinyl acetate composites filled with Al–Cu–Fe and Al–Cu–Cr quasicrystallline particles

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2019
Icosahedral Al65Cu23Fe12 and decagonal Al73Cu11Cr16 quasicrystalline powders were synthesized by the mechanical alloying and subsequent annealing. Morphology evolution at mechanical alloying of Al-based powders was found to be determined by competition ...

Explaining the Origin of Negative Poisson's Ratio in Amorphous Networks With Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how machine learning (ML) breaks the “vicious cycle” in designing auxetic amorphous networks. By transitioning from traditional “black‐box” optimization to an interpretable “AI‐Physics” closed‐loop paradigm, ML is shown to not only discover highly optimized structures—such as all‐convex polygon networks—but also unveil hidden ...

From crystalline to glassy: Crack propagation modes in decagonal quasicrystals

open access: yes, 2022
S.323-328The propagation of mode-I cracks in a two-dimensional decagonal model quasicrystals is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The samples are endowed with an atomically sharp seed crack and a temperature gradient.

Cation Distribution in Li2CaSiO4:Gd, Pr, Na Uncovered Through Anomalous Diffraction

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Li2CaSiO4 co‐doped with Gd3+ and Pr3+ shows strong blue‐to‐UV‐B up‐conversion. Herein, we explore the doping element distribution in order to discern the reason for the strongly supportive co‐doping effect using high‐resolution Rietveld refinement and multiple‐edge anomalous dispersion measurements.

Crack propagation in quasicrystals

open access: yes, 2022
S.500-516Numerical simulations have been performed on the propagation of mode-I cracks in both ordered and randomized two-dimensional decagonal model quasicrystals.

Quasicrystals - Discovery, Structure and Properties [PDF]

open access: yesKemija u Industriji, 2012
Quasicrystals are solid materials the structures of which can have crystallographically forbidden symmetries, e.g. of the fifth order, and do not have the translational invariance charactistic for classical crystals.
