Design and characterisation of photonic quasicrystals from microwave to optical regime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Photonic band-gap materials are artificially periodic engineered materials with which we can control and manipulate the electromagnetic radiation. The period photonic crystals are well known and have been studied for the last two decades.

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.

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 ...

A parsimonious structure model for the icosahedral quasicrystal Cd5.7Yb

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section A, EarlyView.
The paper presents a parsimonious structure model for the icosahedral Cd5.7Yb quasicrystal. It employs only spherical and elliptical occupation domains, which significantly decreases the number of parameters and the required calculation effort. Still, the model describes the characteristic structural features with considerable accuracy.A compact ...

Structure models of quasicrystal approximants deduced from the strong reflections approach in quasicrystals: types, systems and techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Quasicrystals are metallic alloys that exhibit atomic scale order, but not periodic order. Atomic scale properties of these materials are different from single crystalline material, for example, extraordinary mechanical properties, electrical and thermal

The first discovery of a shocked, metasomatised CV3 chondrule‐fragment in a (Al,Cu)‐bearing micrometeorite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

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

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 20, 17 July 2026.
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.

Single-Beam 1-D, 2-D And 3-D Patterning Of Liquid Crystal-Polymer Composites With Spatial Light Modulation Based On Computer-Generated Holography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The technique of Spatial Light Modulation based on Computer-generated Holography has been successfully exploited to realize patterned samples made by a mixture of liquid crystal and polymeric composites.

The Curled Up Dimension in Quasicrystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Most quasicrystals can be generated by the cut-and-project method from higher dimensional parent lattices. In doing so they lose the periodic order their parent lattice possess, replaced with aperiodic order, due to the irrationality of the projection ...

Y4Ni0.71Ag1.29: Expanding the Boundaries of the Gd4RhIn Structure Type

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 652, Issue 11, 16 July 2026.
A first representative of the Gd4RhIn type with three transition metals. The new ternary compound Y4Ni0.71Ag1.29 has been prepared by arc melting the elements under inert atmosphere. Subsequent annealing at 800°C for 2 weeks yielded crystals of sufficient quality for structure determination by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
