Entropic crystallization of geometrically frustrated magnets on 1/1 approximant Tsai-type quasicrystal

Oscar Novat, Ludovic D. C. Jaubert, Masafumi Udagawa

We have studied the antiferromagnetic Ising model on the icosahedral bcc lattice, as a model system of 1/1 approximant Tsai-type quasicrystals. We addressed thermal equilibrium pro…
