单词 quasicrystal
释义

Definition of quasicrystal in English:

quasicrystal

noun ˈkweɪzʌɪkrɪstəlˈkweɪsʌɪkrɪstəlˈkwɑːzizʌɪkrɪstəlˌkwāˌzīˈkristəl
Physics
  • A locally regular aggregation of molecules resembling a crystal in certain properties (such as that of diffraction) but not having a consistent spatial periodicity.

    Example sentencesExamples
    • The alloy forms metastable icosahedral quasicrystals, but Kelton was focusing instead on the alloy's stable crystalline phase, a complex polytetrahedral arrangement called C14 Laves.
    • Quasicrystals exhibit unusual symmetries, which geologists had always thought were impossible in nature, but it turns out that quasicrystal structure can be explained by a form of Penrose tiling.
    • Previous work has suggested that Bloch-like waves - which describe electron motion in classic crystals - can occur in quasicrystals as well.
    • Intriguingly, a variant of the Kolakoski sequence involving the digits 1 and 3 may shed light on describing where atoms are located in unusual materials known as quasicrystals.
    • She was cited for ‘pioneering work on the surface structures, stabilities and other properties of metal films and quasicrystals, and elucidation of surface structure and chemistry of water on metals.’

Derivatives

  • quasicrystalline

  • adjective ˌkweɪzʌɪˈkrɪstəlʌɪnˈkweɪsʌɪkrɪstəlʌɪnˌkwɑziːˈkrɪstəlʌɪn
    Physics
    • The experimentalists created one new quasicrystalline phase after another, while the theoreticians developed mathematical systems for describing their symmetry in three dimensions.
      Example sentencesExamples
      • But because the liquid and quasicrystal phases have similar order - and hence a smaller - the quasicrystalline phase has the lower barrier and will solidify first.
      • We designate this phase as a quasicrystalline phase, L q.
      • Thermal studies showed that the gel phase subsequently relaxes into the quasicrystalline phase in an exothermic transition.
      • Using this method, 2D quasicrystalline LH2 liposomes were obtained.
