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…
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…
We present a new complementary strategy to quasicrystalline structure determination: The local atomic structure of simple icosahedral (si) Ho11Mg15Zn74 [a(6D)=5.144(3)A] in a sphere of up to r=17A was refined using the atomic pair…
The atomic structure of the icosahedral Ti-Zr-Ni quasicrystal is determined by invoking similarities to periodic crystalline phases, diffraction data and the results from ab initio calculations. The structure is modeled by decorations of…
The effect of Mg-substitution on the crystal structure of wurtzite ZnO is presented based on synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies of polycrystalline Zn1-xMgxO (0 <= x <= 0.15). Increase in Mg concentration results in pronounced c-axis…
We investigated two-dimensional magnonic structures which are the counterparts of photonic quasicrystals forming Penrose tiling. We considered the slab composed of Ni (or Py) disks embedded in Fe (or Co) matrix. The disks were arranged in…
To understand the formation of the Bergman cluster in the F-type icosahedral quasicrystal, crystallographic relations between the quasicrystal and the intermetallic-compound H and Zn$_{23}$Y$_6$ phases in the Zn-Mg-Y alloy system were…
While performing molecular dynamics simulations of a simple monatomic liquid, we observed the crystallization of a material displaying octagonal symmetry in its simulated diffraction pattern. Inspection of the atomic arrangements in the…
We used neutron powder diffraction to obtain the local and long-range structure of La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 at room temperature and 20K. By combining Rietveld and pair distribution function analysis of the total neutron scattering data, we have…
Structural studies on the icosahedral quasicrystals in Zn-Mg-Sc, Cu-Ga-Mg-Sc, and Zn-Mg-Ti alloys as well as their corresponding 1/1 cubic approximants, have revealed that these quasicrystals belong to a new structural group similar to…
It is shown that tiling in icosahedral quasicrystals can also be properly described by cyclic twinning at the unit cell level. The twinning operation is applied on the primitive prolate golden rhombohedra, which can be considered a result…
A dodecagonal quasicrystal showing 12-fold symmetry forms in Mn-rich quaternary alloys containing 5.5 or 7.5 at.% Cr, 5.0 at.% Ni and 17.5 at.% Si. After annealing at 700 C for 130 h, the quasicrystal precipitated in a matrix of \b{eta}-Mn…
We performed neutron powder diffraction experiments on lithium imide Li2NH, and have proposed a revised crystal structure model. Li2NH has a face-centered cubic structure with a partially occupied hydrogen site. Of the possible crystal…
Synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction measurements have been performed on unpoled ceramic samples of (1-x)PbMg(1/3)Nb(2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-xPT) with 30%<= x<= 39% as a function of temperature around the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB),…
The dodecagonal quasicrystal classified into the five-dimensional space group P126/mmc, recently discovered in a Mn-Cr-Ni-Si alloy, has been analyzed using atomic-resolution spherical aberration-corrected electron microscopy, i.e.…
Structural investigation on $Co_{3-x}Mn_xTeO_6$; ($0 \lt x \le 2$) solid solutions as a function of Mn concentration using Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD) and XANES measurements are presented. Phase diagram obtained from Rietveld…
The crystal structures of the Sr1-xCaxRuO3 perovskites are investigated using both long range and local structural probes. High resolution synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction characterization at ambient temperature shows that the materials…
In the window approach to quasicrystals, the atomic position space E_parallel is embedded into a space E^n = E_parallel + E_perp. Windows are attached to points of a lattice Lambda \in E^n. For standard 5fold and icosahedral tiling models,…
In this work, we present the formation and characterization of a quaternary (pseudo ternary) icosahedral quasicrystal in Al65Ga5Pd17Mn13 alloy. The X ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of…
We report the in situ formation of an ordered equilibrium decagonal Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystal overlayer on the 5-fold symmetric surface of an icosahedral Al-Pd-Mn monograin. The decagonal structure of the epilayer is evidenced by x-ray…
