Concepts -- Tilings and Coverings -- Polyhedra and Packings -- Higher-Dimensional Approach -- Methods -- Experimental Techniques -- Structure Analysis -- Diffuse Scattering and Disorder -- Structures -- Structures with 1D Quasiperiodicity -- Structures with 2D Quasiperiodicity -- Structures with 3D Quasiperiodicity -- Phase Formation and Stability -- Generalized Quasiperiodic Structures.
From tilings to quasicrystal structures and from surfaces to the n-dimensional approach, this book gives a full, self-contained in-depth description of the crystallography of quasicrystals. It aims not only at conveying the concepts and a precise picture of the structures of quasicrystals, butit also enables the interested reader to enter the field of quasicrystal structure analysis. Going beyond metallic quasicrystals, it also describes the new, dynamically growing field of photonic quasicrystals. The readership will be graduate students and researchers in crystallography, solid-state physics, materials science, solid- state chemistry and applied mathematics.
