Formation of A Quasicrystalline Phase from The Glassy State in Pd-U-Si
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
Metallic glasses of composition Pd58.8U20.6Si20.6 can be transformed to a metastable single phase with quasicrystall ne order by thermal annealing. The icosahedral symmetry of this phase was verified by both electron and x-ray diffraction. Although the metallic glass can be formed over a broad compositional range the homogeneity range of this icosahedral phase is less than 1%. This indicates strong chemical ordering in the quasicrystalline state.
