Description
This book is aimed at researchers who are working in a field of quasicrystals to provide a reference to recent developments and ideas in the field and also at graduate students, who intend to study quasicrystals, to provide introduction of ideas. Topics in this book cover an entire field of quasicrystals, both experimental and theoretical, including new developments: the state of the art in quasicrystallography, new families of quasicrystals, phasons in aperiodic solids, ab initio studies on stability mechanism, quantum transport phenomena, elastic/plastic properties and surface of quasicrystals.

Takeo Fujiwara has been working on quasicrystals since soon after the discovery of quasicrystals and contributing to developing new ideas on quasicrystals: TF are working on mainly electronic structures of quasiperiodic systems and real quasicrystalline materials and YI are working on "phason?-related instability of quasicrystals as well as electronic structures. Yasushi Ishii has been working on quasicrystals since soon after the discovery of quasicrystals and contributing to developing new ideas on quasicrystals: TF are working on mainly electronic structures of quasiperiodic systems and real quasicrystalline materials and YI are working on "phason?-related instability of quasicrystals as well as electronic structures.
