Abstract
A systematic study on the formation and the stability of Al70Cu20 Fe10 quasicrystalline alloy has been carried out through mechanical alloying. The influence of the milling parameters, sequence of additive elements, and heat treatment on the formation of icosahedral phase has been investigated through x-ray diffraction analysis and transmission electron microscopy. A combination of milling and heat treatment of Al70Cu20Fe10 composition resulted in the formation of a single icosahedral phase (i-phase) quasicrystal with face-centered structure. We present evidence that suggests the i phase is of a nanoquasicrystalline nature. From the present investigations, we propose an i-phase formation mechanism in Al-Cu-Fe system.
