Abstract

X-ray diffraction study of quasicrystalline and transformed crystalline phases of Al6CuMg4 alloy is reported. The pattern of this quasicrystalline alloys has been indexed and compared with that of Al6CuLi3. Close structural relationship between crystalline and quasicrystalline phases of this alloy is discussed. Our study shows that in transformed crystalline phase, few lattice sites, which lie on the vertices of a triacontahedron are partially occupied. The implications of this result are discussed.
