Abstract
The closest cubic approximant to the MCd5.7 (M = Ca, Yb) quasicrystals known so far, namely Ca13 Cd76 , was obtained by high-temperature reaction of the elements. It exhibits a new type of structure for intermetallic compounds with an unprecedented arrangement of triacontahedral clusters, which could prove useful in modeling the structures of the MCd5.7 quasicrystals.Entities:
