Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) results are presented for several aluminum alloy samples prepared using the melt-spinning technique including orthorhombic Al6Mn, Al–Mn quasicrystals both with and without doping with Si and Ru, and a T-phase alloy of Al and Pt. With the exception of the orthorhombic material, all of the NMR spectra show a broad distribution of sites. No features unique to the quasicrystal phase are observed. For the orthorhombic material the quadrupole field parameters are found to be ∥V Q∥ − 1.0±0.1 MHz and η = 0.4±0.1.
