Structure of Ca13Cd76 : A novel approximant to the MCd5.7 Quasicrystals (M = Ca, Yb)

Gmez, Cesar Pay and Lidin, Sven LU (2001) In Angewandte Chemie - International Edition 40(21). p.4037-4039
Abstract

The closest cubic approximant to the MCd5.7 (M = Ca, Yb) quasicrystals known so far, namely Ca13Cd76, was obtained by high-temperature reaction of the elements. It exhibits a new type of structure for intermetallic compounds with an unprecedented arrangement of triacontahedral clusters (see structure), which could prove useful in modeling the structures of the MCd5.7 quasicrystals.
