Abstract

Compositions of Al–transition metal (TM) binary quasicrystals are revisited using the cluster-plus-glue-atom model. These compositions all conform to a unified cluster formula [icosahedron](glue)1, where the icosahedron is taken from a crystalline approximant. In a given binary system, icosahedral and decagonal quasicrystals are expressed by the same icosahedron but glued, respectively, by one Al and one TM, and their e/a ratios fall close to 1.86 and 1.71–1.79, respectively. Their relative stabilities are discussed by referring to compositions satisfying the fully filled TM-3d states according to Häussler's resonance model.
