Burgers vector determination of dislocations in an Al70Co15Ni15decagonal quasicrystal

Abstract
Not only the directions, but also the senses and magnitudes of the Burgers vectors b of dislocations in Al70Co15Ni15 decagonal quasicrystal have been determined for the first time by the large-angle convergent-beam electron diffraction technique. Right−hand screw dislocations with b = [3/400000] and [100000] have been determined.
