What Is A Quasicrystal Alloy?

What Is A Quasicrystal Alloy? Quasicrystals have been used in various applications to improve wear resistance as well as friction. It is known that quasicrystal (i-phase) content and microstructure in alloys have a decisive effect on the mechanical properties and tribological performance. How do you make a quasicrystal? The idea behind the method is to
