A tunable ferromagnetic quasicrystal with high phase purity

Quasicrystals (QCs) have peculiar structures with interesting atomic arrangements. Although they are similar to crystals from the exterior, at the atomic scale, they lack periodicity despite being ordered. Such structural ...

Âé¶¹ÒùÔºicists solve riddle of two-dimensional quasicrystal formation from metal oxides

The structure of two-dimensional titanium oxide breaks up at high temperatures when one adds barium; instead of regular hexagons, rings of four, seven and ten atoms are created that order aperiodically.

Resurrecting quasicrystals: Findings make an exotic material commercially viable

A class of materials that once looked as if it might revolutionize everything from solar cells to frying pans—but fell out of favor in the early 2000s—could be poised for commercial resurrection, findings from a University ...
