Partial isothermal sections of the Al-Pd-Ru phase diagram at 1000 and 1100°C are presented. The Al-Pd orthorhombic e-phases dissolve up to ~15.5 at.% Ru, Al13Ru4 <2.5 at.% Pd and Al2Ru up to 1 at.% Pd. Between 65 and 80 at.% of Al ternary quasiperiodic icosahedral phase and four cubic phases were revealed. An additional complex cubic structure with a ≈ 3.96 nm was found to be formed at compositions close to those of the icosahedral phase.

 

Electron diffraction patterns of the: a) F-phase along the [110] zone axis and b) I-phase along the 5-fold direction.
