Are the Al atoms correctly placed in the models of i-AlPdMn and i-AlCuFe? — •Zorka Papadopolos1, Oliver Gröning2, and Roland Widmer21Institut für Theoretische Physik, Univ. Tübingen, Germany — 2Material Science and Technology, EMPA, Thun, Switzerland

The model M(T*(2F)) [1], as a model of atomic positions describes Al70Pd21Mn9 and Al62Cu25.5Fe12.5 [2]. The model is based on the diffraction results [3,4]. In the model we study the bulk terminations as defined in [5], through a generalisation of the Bravais’ rule to the quasicrystals. Assuming the model independent results of LEIS (low energy ion scattering) [6], from the STM (scanning tunnelling microscopy) simulations [7] on the 5fold surface, compared to the real images of i-AlPdMn, we conclude that either the Al atoms are not correctly placed in the model, or the shape of atomic surfaces, i.e. the model of atomic positions itself must be changed.
