Modeling of quasicrystal lattices with a 4-fold symmetry axis
Journal Title: Journal of Physics and Electronics - Year 2018, Vol 26, Issue 2
Abstract
The construction method of a quasilattice with a four-fold rotational symmetry axis is proposed. The described method is based on the recurrent generation of the initial group of lattice points, which are a set of vertices of a square. The aperiodic crystal reciprocal lattice modeling algorithm is analyzed. Used modeling technique is compared with conventional projection approach. The orthogonal basis of a four-dimensional hypercubic lattice is proposed. This lattice produces two-dimensional quasicrystal with a four-fold symmetry axis after it projection on a flat surface. It is shown that the indexation of diffraction pattern of similar quasiperiodic structures can be carry out using 3 integer indexes, which is analogous to the indexing system proposed by Cahn for application to icosahedral quasicrystals.

Conductivity of lithium heptagermanate glasses and single crystals doped with 3d- ions
Lithium heptagermanate Li2Ge7O15 glasses doped with Cr and Mn were prepared by the melt quenching. Electrical conductivity σ of pure and doped glasses was measured in AC field (f=1 kHz) within the temperature range 300-7...
Landau effective Hamiltonian and its application to magnetic systems
The Landau definition of the effective Hamiltonian (of the nonequilibrium free energy) is realized in a microscopic theory. According to Landau remark, the consideration is based on classical statistical mechanics. In hi...
Features of the influence of thermal modes of cooling on processes of nonequilibrium crystallization of materials from the liquid state
The quantitative estimation of maximum level of cooling rates in the process of casting microwires in glass insulation is given. The shown possibility of nonequilibrium formation of microwire substance is due to the infl...
