Prediction of coherent interfaces between diamond and clathrate structures

Eva Pospíšilová, Marek Mihalkovič

Diamond (or its binary zincblende variant)-type structure can form coherent interface with clathrate type II via the common transitional layer known previously as a -d…

Quasicrystal structure prediction: A review

Michael Widom, Marek Mihalkovic

Predicting quasicrystal structures is a multifaceted problem that can involve predicting a previously unknown phase, predicting the structure of an experimentally observed phase, o…

Formation enthalpies of Al-Mn-Pd and the structure of the -AlMnPd quasicrystal

Marek Mihalkovic, Michael Widom

This paper reports formation enthalpies of phases in the Al-Mn-Pd ternary alloy system as calculated from first principles using electronic density functional theory. We consider a…

Planar defect in approximant: the case of Cu-Al-Sc alloy

Tsutomu Ishimasa, Yeong-Gi So, Marek Mihalkovič

The {110} planar defect formed in the Cu-Al-Sc 1/1 approximant has been studied by means of electron microscopy and 6-dimensional analysis. As the displacement vector of the planar…

Spontaneous formation of thermodynamically stable Al--Cu--Fe icosahedral quasicrystal from realistic atomistic simulations

Marek Mihalkovic, Michael Widom

Icosahedral quasicrystals spontaneously form from the melt in simulations of Al--Cu--Fe alloys. We model the interatomic interactions using oscillating pair potentials tuned to the…

Interpretation of some Yb-based valence-fluctuating crystals as approximants to a dodecagonal quasicrystal

Tsutomu Ishimasa, Marek Mihalkovič, Kazuhiko Deguchi +2

The hexagonal ZrNiAl-type (space group: P-62m) and the tetragonal Mo2FeB2-type (space group: P4/mbm) structures, which are frequently formed in the same Yb-based alloys and exhibit…
