摘要
The diffusivities of implanted, radioactive Pd-103 and Au-195 in icosahedral Al70.4Pd20.8Mn8.8 quasicrystals were measured between 810 and 270 degrees C by a radiotracer technique, where serial sectioning was done by high-precision grinding or ion-beam sputtering. Both diffusion coefficients obey different Arrhenius laws above and below 450 degrees C. Whereas diffusion above this temperature is explained in terms of a vacancy mechanism that reflects the heterogeneity of the icosahedral structure, diffusion below 450 degrees C is proposed to occur via a phason-assisted direct mechanism.
