On the anisotropy in the HRTEM images of a decagonal quasicrystalline phase of the Al-Cu-Co-Si system

Experimental evidence of an electrical and/or magnetic anisotropy was observed in the high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) images of a decagonal quasicrystalline (DQC) phase of the Al-Cu-Co-Si system. X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) spectra indicated a composition of A...
