Study of local environment in quasicrystalline Al86Mn14 by Mössbauer effect
Abstract
Mössbauer-effect measurements on Al86(57Fe0.02Mn0. 98)>14 in the icosahedral phase indicate a distribution of quadrupole-splitting magnitudes at the iron sites. This distribution strongly indicates the existence of more than two inequivalent Mn sites. It can be fitted at least as well with a continuous distribution of sites of the form suggested by an amorphous analog as with a discrete set.
