摘要
The atomic dynamics of decagonal Al-Ni-Co quasicrystals are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The model structures used consist of an alternating stacking of two layers, which are decorations of a hexagon-boat-star tiling. Apart from small relaxations, these model structures are essentially stable up to the melting point. Above two thirds of the melting temperature, a large fraction of the aluminium atoms becomes mobile, and long-range atomic diffusion sets in, without destroying the overall structure. The diffusion of aluminium is analyzed as a function of temperature and pressure, and the microscopic diffusion processes are discussed. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
