商品簡介
Papers from a December 2003 symposium report on progress made in the understanding of electronic and physical properties of quasicrystalline compounds. Papers are arranged in sections on synthesis and structure, transport, electronic, and mechanical properties, quasicrystal from metallic glasses, surfaces and coatings, and applications and hydrogen storage. Some specific topics examined include quasicrystal approximants with novel compositions and structures, phononic quasicrystal, semiconducting aluminum transition- metal quasicrystal, and orientation relationships between metallic thin films and quasicrystalline substrates.
