Abstract
Effects of dislocation strain fields on Bragg lines in an Al70Co15Ni15 decagonal quasicrystal have been studied by using an improved large-angle convergent-beam electron diffraction technique. It is found that the effects are the same as that in conventional crystals.


Résumé
Les effets induits par les champs de contraintes des dislocations sur les lignes de Bragg observées dans un quasicristal décagonal Al70Co15Ni15, ont été étudiés par une technique améliorée de diffraction électronique en faisceau convergent à grand angle. Il est montré que ces effets sont semblables à ceux observés dans des cristaux conventionnels.
