Starting from the Zn17Sc3 cubic approximant, new quasicrystal alloys were searched by replacement of Zn with transition elements, T. In the cases of T=Mn, Fe, Co and Ni, new icosahedral quasicrystals are formed in as-cast alloys as major…

The acoustic properties of a porous sheet of medium resistivity backed by a rigid plate in which are embedded a periodic set of circular inclusions is investigated. Such a structure behaves like a multi-component diffraction gratings.…

Sodium, magnesium and aluminum adatoms, which, respectively, possess one, two and three valence electrons in terms of 3s, $3s^2$, and ($3s^2$, 3p) orbitals, are very suitable for helping us understand the adsorption-induced diverse…

This paper reviews recent progress in the study of rare gas films on quasicrystalline surfaces. The adsorption of Xe on the 10-fold surface of decagonal Al-Ni-Co was studied using low-energy electron diffraction (LEED). The results of these…

A structure analysis of Zn-Mg-Ho icosahedral quasicrystal was carried out by the powder X-ray diffraction method using synchrotron radiation (Lambda=0.73490 A) at SPring-8. The intensity distribution was analyzed by the Rietveld method…

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. Currently, it is…

Distribution of aluminum and gallium atoms over the tetrahedral and octahedral sites in the garnet structure was studied in the mixed Lu3Al5-xGaxO12 crystals using the 27Al and 71Ga MAS NMR together with the single crystal 71Ga NMR. The…

We apply a recently developed quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ method (QSGW) to Gd, Er, EuN, GdN, ErAs, YbN and GdAs. We show that QSGW combines advantages separately found in conventional $GW$ and LDA+$U$ theory, in a simple and fully…

A theoretical interpretation of the photoluminescence excitation spectra of self-organized polar GaN/(Al,Ga)N quantum dots is proposed. A numerical method assuming a realistic shape of the dots and including the built-in electric field…

A new approach to solve quasicrystalline atomic structures in 3-dimensional (3D) real space is presented: The atomic pair distribution function (PDF) of face centred icosahedral Ho9Mg26Zn65 [a(6D) = 2x5.18(3)A was obtained from in-house…

The approximants xi, xi' and xi'_n of the quasicrystal Al-Mn-Pd display most interesting plastic properties as for example phason-induced deformation processes (Klein, H., Audier, M., Boudard, M., de Boissieu, M., Beraha, L., and Duneau,…

Frustrated quasidoublets without time-reversal symmetry can host highly unconventional magnetic structures with continuously distributed order parameters even in a single-phase crystal. Here, we report the comprehensive thermodynamic and…

Selective laser melting (SLM) is rapidly evolving to become a mainstream technology. However, the fundamental mechanisms of solidification and microstructure development inherent to the non-equilibrium conditions of this additive…

We present a quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ (QSGW) implementation for periodic systems based on crystalline Gaussian basis sets. Our QSGW approach is based on a full-frequency analytic continuation GW scheme with Brillouin zone sampling…

We use density-functional theory to describe the initial stages of Fe film growth on GaAs(001), focusing on the interplay between chemistry and magnetism at the interface. Four features appear to be generic: (1) At submonolayer coverages, a…

We review our Al adsorption experiments on the tenfold-symmetry surface of the decagonal Al-Co-Ni quasicrystal and present computational simulations of adsorption on a structural model based on a fundamental Al-Co cluster with 20 \AA…

Aluminium alloy AA7075 (Al-Zn-Mg-Cu) specimens were prepared using selective laser melting, also known as powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. In the as-manufactured state, which represents a locally rapidly solidified condition, the…

First principles total-energy pseudopotential calculations have been performed to investigate STM images of the (110) cross-sectional surface of Mn-doped GaAs. We have considered configurations with Mn in interstitial positions in the…

We apply Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the DFT+U technique to study the adsorption of transition metal porphine molecules on atomistically flat Au(111) surfaces. DFT calculations using the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) exchange…

We address the mechanism of early stages of growth and shape transition of the unique nanowall network (NwN) nanostructure of GaN by experimentally monitoring its controlled growth using PA-MBE and complementing it by…
