Figure 1
SEM images and electron diffraction patterns of (a), (b) Al–Co–Ni d-QC and (c), (d) the X phase. The sample preparations for the approximant X phase are described in Section 2[link], while those for the d-QC are given in our previous work (Han et al., 2017BB33). The arrow in (a) indicates the periodic 〈00001〉 direction in the d-QC and the arrow in (c) represents the 〈010〉 direction (or b axis) of the X phase. The diffraction pattern, reprinted from Han et al. (2017BB33), in (b) shows tenfold symmetry along 〈00001〉, while that in (d) represents a monclinic crystal structure (Pearson symbol ms26) along the [201] zone axis.
