Electron Microscopy and Surface Investigations of Quasicrystals

  • Chapter
Quasicrystals

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 55))

Summary

A review of recent results on electron-microscopy investigations of quasicrystalline materials is presented with special emphasis on thermodynamically stable quasicrystals. Also, an introduction into the technique of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) as well as into convergent beam electron diffraction and Kikuchi line pattern techniques is given. Additionally, techniques sensitive to thin surface layers and especially their application to quasicrystals are discussed: secondary electron imaging, X-ray photoelectron scattering, electron backscattering diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy.

The HRTEM technique is illustrated with examples of the structural investigation of decagonal d-Al—Mn—Pd and d-Al—Co—Ni quasicrystals as well as the icosahedral (i-) phases in the systems Al—Cu—Li, Al—Mn—Pd and Al—Cu—Fe. The role of atom clusters in the structural analysis of quasicrystals is emphasized and reviewed. It is shown that a statistical analysis of the long-range translational order in stable decagonal quasicrystals can be made using HRTEM images. Investigations of the structure of dodecagonal, octagonal and cubic quasicrystals by HRTEM imaging in combination with electron-diffraction techniques are discussed, and the application of aperiodic twelve-fold symmetric tilings is treated.
