But, not many people know about quasicrystals, which are unique structures with strange atomic arrangement. Like crystals, quasicrystals are also tightly arranged, but what\u2019s different about them is the fact that they possess an unprecedented pentagonal symmetry, such that the atomic arrangement is highly ordered but not periodic. This distinctive feature gives them unique properties, like high stability, resistance to heat, and low friction. Since their discovery only about 30 years ago, scientists globally have been trying to understand the properties of quasicrystals, in an effort to make more advancements in materials research. But, this is not easy, as quasicrystals are not prevalent in nature. Luckily, they have been able to make use of structures similar to quasicrystals, called \u201cTsai-type approximants.\u201d Understanding these structures in detail could give insights into the many properties of quasicrystals. One such property is antiferromagnetism, in which magnetic moments are aligned in a quasiperiodic order, strikingly distinguished from conventional antiferromagnets. This property has never been observed in quasicrystals so far, but the possibility was exciting for materials scientists, as it could be a gateway to a plethora of new applications. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-justify:inter-ideograph\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-justify:inter-ideograph\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">In a <span class=\"MsoHyperlink\" style=\"color:blue\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.aps.org\/prb\/abstract\/10.1103\/PhysRevB.100.180409\" style=\"color:blue; text-decoration:underline\">new study published in <i>Physical Review B: Rapid Communications<\/i><\/a><\/span><\/span>, a team of scientists at Tokyo University of Science, led by Prof Ryuji Tamura, found for the first time that a type of Tsai-type approximant exhibits an antiferromagnetic transition. This was an exciting finding, as it suggested that even quasicrystals could show such a transition. The scientists already knew that Tsai-type approximants have two different variants: 1\/1 and 2\/1 approximants. The main difference between the two is that 2\/1 approximants contain an additional rhombohedral unit in their structure, which is absent in the 1\/1 type, making them even more highly ordered and closer to the structure of quasicrystals. And, this is why the scientists wanted to see the conditions in which 2\/1 approximants could show antiferromagnetism; it created a possibility of seeing this new property even in quasicrystals. Prof Tamura says, \u201cAntiferromagnetic transitions have been observed in 1\/1 approximants, but we observed it in a 2\/1 approximant for the first time. This is interesting because <\/span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">unlike the 1\/1 approximant, the 2\/1 approximant contains all the components necessary to construct a quasicrystal.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-justify:inter-ideograph\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">To take a closer look at the magnetic properties of 2\/1 approximants, the scientists synthesized metallic alloys with a crystalline structure, which contained both 1\/1 and 2\/1 approximants. By using a device called the <\/span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID)<\/span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">, they studied the conditions under which the approximants showed different magnetic properties. Interestingly, they found that a single parameter dictates the presence of antiferromagnetism in both types of approximants. This was the ratio of electron per atom, which slightly differed in the two types. By manipulating the electron-per-atom ratio, Prof Tamura and his team saw a \u201ctransition\u201d to an antiferromagnetic state in both types of approximants. This property had been seen in the 1\/1 type before but never in the 2\/1 approximant. This was an exciting development, as the highly ordered structure of the 2\/1 approximant meant that it could be used to generate quasicrystals, making this the very first study to show the possibility of antiferromagnetic quasicrystals. Elaborating on their findings, Prof Tamura says, \u201cWe succeeded in observing, for the first time, antiferromagnetic transitions in the 1<i>\/<\/i>1 and 2<i>\/<\/i>1 AFM approximants in the <i>sam<\/i>e<i> <\/i>alloy system.\u201d He adds, \u201cOur finding clearly shows that the antiferromagnetic order survives in the 2\/1 higher-order approximant, which has all the building blocks for creating a quasicrystal.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-justify:inter-ideograph\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">The significance of quasicrystals\u2014such as in routine applications like making frying pans and needles for acupuncture and surgery\u2014is well known. But, given their very recent discovery, not much has been understood about what makes them so unique. By showing the existence of antiferromagnetism in a quasicrystal-like structure, Prof Tamura and his team have potentially paved the way for greater developments in quasicrystal research. Prof Tamura concludes by saying, \u201cAntiferromagnetic quasicrystals had never been seen before, and this discovery has a great academic impact.\u201d He adds, \u201cThe possibility of the existence of antiferromagnetic quasicrystals is a big step towards deciphering the mystery of quasicrystals.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">Reference<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<table class=\"Table\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse; border:undefined\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:135.0pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in\" valign=\"top\" width=\"180\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">Title of original paper:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:316.3pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in\" valign=\"top\" width=\"422\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">Antiferromagnetic order survives in the higher-order quasicrystal approximant<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:135.0pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in\" valign=\"top\" width=\"180\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">Journal:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:316.3pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in\" valign=\"top\" width=\"422\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">Physical Review B: Rapid Communications<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height:4.0pt\">\n<td style=\"width:135.0pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in; height:4.0pt\" valign=\"top\" width=\"180\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\">DOI:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:316.3pt; padding:0in 0in 0in 0in; height:4.0pt\" valign=\"top\" width=\"422\">\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span class=\"MsoHyperlink\" style=\"color:blue\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline\"><span style=\"font-size:11.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.doi.org\/10.1103\/PhysRevB.100.180409\" style=\"color:blue; text-decoration:underline\">https:\/\/www.doi.org\/10.1103\/PhysRevB.100.180409 <\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"Default\" style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\" style=\"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:black\"><b>About The Tokyo University of Science<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify; margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"text-justify:inter-ideograph\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tus.ac.jp\/en\/mediarelations\/\">Tokyo University of Science<\/a> (TUS) is a well-known and respected university, and the largest science-specialized private research university in Japan, with four campuses in central Tokyo and its suburbs and in Hokkaido.
