Decagonal quasicrystals of melt-quenched Al Cu Co and Al Co alloys have been investigated by convergent-beam electron diffraction (CBED) and transmission electron microscopy. The CBED method has revealed that the space group of the alloys is non-centrosymmetric P 10 m2. Al 73 Co 27 is the first non-centrosymmetric binary quasicrystal. Dark-field microscopy has revealed the existence of inversion domains with an antiphase shift of c/2 at the domain boundaries. These results are analogous to those for the melt-quenched alloy Al 70 Ni 15 Fe 15 (Saito et al., Jpn. J. Appl. Phys., 31 (1992) L109). However, structural phase transformation as a function of the transition metal composition, as observed for the Al Ni Fe system, does not occur in the present system, and two types of pentagonal atom cluster images are observed in high-resolution electron microscope images, but only one type in the Al Ni Fe alloys.
