Formation of quasicrystalline phase in rapidly solidified Al[sub 23]CuFe[sub 4]

Journal Article Dey, G.K. ; Savalia, R.T. ; Banerjee, S. ; ... - Scripta Metallurgica et Materialia; (United States)

Since the observation of an icosahedral phase in Al-Mn, by Shechtman et al., a large number of alloy systems have been identified, where quasicrystals of different types can be obtained after rapid solidification. Of late, the existence of the icosahedral phase in Al[sub 65]Cu[sub 20]Fe[sub 15] has drawn considerable attention, because of the stable nature of the quasicrystalline phase in this alloy, and the fact that these quasicrystals have abnormally low phasonic strains. In the continuous endeavor of finding new alloy compositions, where quasicrystals can be obtained, some guidelines for identifying quasicrystal forming alloys have emerged. One of these guidelinesmore »« less

Icosahedral quasicrystal structure determination: Al-Cu-Li

Miscellaneous Qiu, S.Y.

This dissertation reports the theoretical study of the determination of quasicrystal atomic structures. A new method is developed for phasing the quasicrystal diffraction data (neutron, X-ray diffraction). A mathematical model is built which explicitly relates quasicrystals to their related periodic crystals. A test of the method is made on a simple theoretical system, the icosahedral quasiperiodic Ammann tiling decorated with point scatterers (Dirac [sigma] scattering potential) on vertices. A success is achieved in reconstructing the phases of the quasicrystal. The method is applied to a real quasicrystal system, the icosahedral quasicrystal i(Al[sub .570]Cu[sub .108]Li[sub .322]), where single-grain X-ray as wellmore »« less
NMR and NQR study of the electronic and structural properties of Al-Cu-Fe and Al-Cu-Ru quasicrystals

Journal Article Shastri, A. ; Borsa, F. ; Torgeson, D.R. ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (United States)

[sup 27]Al and [sup 63,65]Cu NMR is reported for powdered stable Al-Cu-Fe and Al-Cu-Ru icosahedral quasicrystals and crystalline approximants, and for an Al-Pd-Mn single-grain quasicrystal. [sup 27]Al NQR spectra at 4.2 K were observed in Al-Cu-Fe and Al-Cu-Ru samples. From quadrupole-perturbed NMR spectra at different magnetic fields, and from zero-field NQR spectra, a wide distribution of local electric-field gradient (EFG) tensor components and principal-axis-system orientations was found at the Al site. A model EFG calculation based on a 1/1 Al-Cu-Fe approximant successfully explained the observed NQR spectra. The average local gradient is largely determined by the [ital p]-electron wave functionmore »« less

First-principles study of crystal structure and stability of T ₁ precipitates in Al-Li-Cu alloys

Journal Article Kim, Kyoungdoc ; Zhou, Bi-Cheng ; Wolverton, C. - Acta Materialia

Aluminum-lithium-copper alloys have a low density, high elastic modulus and high specific strength.Due to this combination of properties, alloys strengthened with the ternary (Al-Li-Cu) T ₁ phase have attracted a great deal of interest especially in aerospace applications. Determining the atomic structuralinformation of the precipitate is a fundamental step in developing a basis for advanced alloy design; however, even though many experimental studies have addressed the T ₁ crystal structure, it remains the subject of some controversy. Here, we use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the structure and composition of the T ₁ phase by comparing the energeticmore »« less

The concept of the approximants of quasicrystals

Journal Article Dong, C. - Scripta Metallurgica et Materialia

The study of quasicrystals has always been associated with the research of related crystalline phases. Quasicrystalline alloys are rarely single phase and the secondary phases are usually crystalline. For example, in melt-spun ribbons of Ti{sub 2}Fe alloys, the following phases are observed: an icosahedral phase, Ti{sub 2}Fe (Ti{sub 2}Ni type), {alpha}-Ti{sub 2}Fe ({alpha}-AlMnSi type), TiFe (CsCl type, or B2 structure) and {beta}-Ti (W type, or A3 structure). Similar phases were also observed in Ti-Ni alloys. In Al-Cu-Fe quasicrystalline alloys, one finds {lambda}-Al{sub 13}Fe{sub 4}, a cubic phase (a B2 superstructure), {omega}-Al{sub 7}Cu{sub 2}Fe, {phi}-Al{sub 10}Cu{sub 10}Fe, {theta}-Al{sub 2}Cu, etc. Valencemore »« less
