摘要
The six-dimensional ( 6D) low density elimination method ( LDEM) has been applied to solve the p-type icosahedral Zn75Mg16Ho9 quasicrystal. The reconstructed electron density distribution by the LDEM exhibits three large occupation domains ( ODs) centred at ( 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0), ( 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2), and ( 1/2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) in the 6D primitive unit cell, and the OD at ( 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2) contains Ho atoms, which mainly distribute around the threefold directions. A geometrical analysis confirms that a rhombic triacontahedron cluster which includes a Bergman-type cluster is a basic building unit of the structure.
