Atomic Structure of Decagonal Al-Cu-Rh Quasicrystal–Revisited: New Correction for Phonons
The standard approach applies the Gaussian distribution function to estimate atomic displacements due to thermal vibrations in periodic and aperiodic systems, which is used in a form of the Debye⁻Waller factor during the structure refinement. Acoustic phonons provide the largest contributi...
