AbstractSurface segregation of aluminium was observed during oxidation experiments of icosahedral A162Cu25.5 Fel12.5, performed in-situ and at different temperatures in the ultra-high vacuum chamber of a scanning Auger electron spectrometer. Two regimes, below and above 770K, were observed in relation with severe segregation of Al atoms at the surface for T > 770K. We postulate that this temperature dependent segregation rate is representative of the aluminium transport towards the surface of the quasicrystal. By analogy with classical diffusion experiments, we can thus determine reasonable estimates of the activation energy for Al self-diffusion in this quasicrystal. The results are consistent with the existence of phason flips below 770K and thermal vacancies above this temperature.

ABSTRACTNanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) has been fabricated by a very-high-frequency plasma cell attached to an ultra-high-vacuum chamber using SiH4 gas. Nanocrystalline Si is formed in the gas phase of the plasma cell and is extracted out of plasma cell through the orifice to the ultra-high-vacuum chamber. The shape of nc-Si is spherical or octahedral with the diameter of 3–30nm. Giant Si particles about 100nm in diameter are also formed at the lower cell pressure condition. A 1000keV transmission electron microscopy measurement has revealed that the core region of giant Si particle with the diameter about 30nm was crystalline and the shell region is amorphous. We have demonstrated that the spread of particle size can be decreased using pulsed gas supply of H2 into SiH4 plasma.
