Atomic model for the growth of icosahedral quasicrystals
Dmitrienko V. E. , Astaf'ev S. B.
It is demonstrated how the binary alloys with a short-range oscillating atomic interaction can grow large, nearly perfect quasicrystal grains. The calculated Bragg peaks become narrower during the grain growth; nevertheless, they exhibit clear evidence for phasonic deformations.© 1995 American institute of Physics.
