Atomically resolved Au52Cu72(SR)55 nanoalloy reveals Marks decahedron truncation and Penrose tiling surface
The formation of Marks truncated decahedra in nanoparticles is ubiquitous but the mechanism has not been fully understood. Here, the authors provide atomic-level insights by creating a non-truncated Au52Cu72(SR)55 decahedral nanocluster and comparing it with the truncated homogold decahedra.
