Quasicrystals, once considered impossible, were found in a 3D-printed aluminum alloy – and they make it stronger. This could change how we design aircraft and car components. Researchers at NIST ...

Researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys. Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it ...

Researchers have determined that the strength of 3D-printed aluminum-zirconium alloys may be due to quasicrystals in the metal's structure. Quasicrystals were the subject of the 2011 Nobel Prize in ...

In 2017, a team at HRL Laboratories, based in California, and UC Santa Barbara discovered a high-strength aluminum alloy that ...
