Aperiodicity and un-conventional rotational symmetries allow quasicrystalline structures to exhibit unusual physical and functional properties. In magnetism, artificial ferromagnetic quasicrystals exhibited knee anomalies suggesting reprogrammable ...

Pressure‐Assisted Dimensional Transformation of 2D Hydrogenated Borophene into 0D Boron Quantum Dots
Hydrogenated borophene (HB) is transformed into distinct boron nanostructures through a solvent‐free thermal process. Under flowing nitrogen, hydrogen escape promotes reconstruction into B2O3 nanoplatelets, whereas hydrogen‐induced pressure under sealed conditions facilitates fragmentation into boron quantum dots.

We introduce the concept of quasicrystals and discuss their diffraction patterns. The idea of local isomorphism is argued to be a physically meaningful one.

Quasicrystals lack translational symmetry, but can still exhibit long-range order, promoting them to candidates for unconventional physics beyond the paradigm of crystals.

We have investigated the linear propagation of light wave in three-dimensional photonic quasicrystal lattices by numerical simulation. The diffraction characteristics of the light waves in the longitudinal non-modulated, in-phase modulated and out-of ...

Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

ABSTRACT Heterogeneous structures have demonstrated great potential for overcoming the long‐standing strength–ductility trade‐off in metallic materials. In this study, a novel dual‐gradient structure, characterized by gradients in both grain size and precipitate distribution, was successfully constructed in an Mg–2Zn–0.8Gd (wt%) alloy sheet via sliding

Three-Dimensional Generalized Dynamics of Soft-Matter Quasicrystals
The three-dimensional generalized dynamics of soft-matter quasicrystals was investigated, in which the governing equations of the dynamics are derived for observed 12-fold symmetry quasicrystals and possibly observed 8- and 10-fold symmetry ones in soft ...

Dislocations in icosahedral quasicrystals [PDF]
Dislocations in quasicrystals, as a direct result of the lack of translational symmetry in these materials, possess various salient features. The Burgers vector of a dislocation in an icosahedral quasicrystal is a 6-dimensional vector, which reflects the fact that the dislocation, besides the phonon-type strain field analogous to dislocations in ...
