Crystallographic Method for Exact Describing Quasicrystal Structures
Abstract
In this paper the problem of the theory of a quasicrystal structures - the determination of coordinates of each atom of quasicrystal in analytical form - is solved. Within the framework of the proposed model a periodic crystal can be presented as a particular case of a quasicrystal. The simple and explicit analytical formulas which describe the location of each atom in a quasicrystal are given. The exact solutions for Penrose and Ammann-Beenker quasicrystal structures are given. On the basis of the analytical formulas the routines are created. The routines are inserted directly into graphical files generating the quasiperiodic structures.
