Designing a minimal Landau model to stabilize desired quasicrystals

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Interparticle interactions with multiple length scales play a pivotal role in the formation and stability of quasicrystals. Choosing a minimal set of length scales to stabilize a given quasicrystal is a challenging problem.

Wave Mechanics of Ciliary Proteins: Quantum‐Enabled Sensing and Energy Transfer in the “Cellular Antenna”

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

Quasicrystals

open access: yes, 2019
This article is made available for reference. It was written following the March 2006 workshop "The World a Jigsaw: Tessellations in the Sciences" at the Lorentz Center, and due to be published in a book entitled "Tessellations in the Sciences: Virtues, Techniques and Applications of Geometric Tilings" (eds R van de Weijgaert, G Vegter, J Ritzerveld ...

On‐Surface Indigo‐Based Bimolecular Coordination Networks with Programmable Regular or Vitreous Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 43, 29 May 2026.
A previously unreported coordination motif stabilising single Fe atoms by indigo chelation and pyridyl coordination on Au(111) has been revealed. By using planar tritopic pyridyl linkers (TPyB), extended 2D porous networks of indigo3(TPyB)2Fe6 form. These networks can be crystalline or vitreous and offer an environment where individual coordination ...

Metallic-mean quasicrystals as aperiodic approximants of periodic crystals

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Quasicrystals differ from traditional incommensurate structures because they have non-crystallographic rotational symmetries. Here the authors introduce a scheme to produce metallic-mean quasicrystals in two dimensions with 6-fold rotational symmetry ...

Algorithmic Design of Disordered Networks With Arbitrary Coordination: Application to Biophotonics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 38, 11 May 2026.
Predictive Design of Disordered Networks: Disordered network‐like morphologies are abundant in nature, from cytoskeletal networks to bone structures and chalcogenide glasses. These structures are naturally hard to characterize. A new algorithmic tool extends the established Wooten–Weaire–Winer (WWW) algorithm to valencies above 4.

Towards aperiodic tesellation: a self-organising particle spring system approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The derivation of novel programming methods for the generation of aperiodic tiling patterns, predominantly in 2d space, has attracted considerable attention from both researchers and practicing architects.

Phononic Quasicrystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Phononic crystals are to sound what photonic crystals are to light and crystals are to electrons. If the wavelength is of the same order of magnitude as the typical distances between the objects in their ordered arrangement, then the interaction is ...

Strongly localized modes in one-dimensional defect-free magnonic quasicrystals

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2014
Signal storage in magnonic quasicrystals using a slow spin-wave mode, rather than the quasinormal mode of traditional periodic magnonic crystals, is proposed, which is analogous to the slow light mode in the field of optics.

Elucidating the Physical and Mathematical Properties of the Prouhet‐Thue‐Morse Sequence in Quantum Computing

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Prouhet‐Thue‐Morse (PTM) sequence emerges as a unifying thread across quantum error correction, noise‐resistant memories, spin‐chain dynamics, quantum chaos, and Dirichlet links to the Riemann zeta function. Mapping PTM‐encoded logical states onto qubit and qudit architectures uncovers symmetry‐protected resilience and multifractal signatures ...
