We found that an Al-Si-Ru cubic quasicrystalline approximant has a semiconducting band structure by performing an orbital analysis based on density functional theory. These semiconducting transport properties have been confirmed in an experimentally synthesized sample. The temperature dependences of the electrical conductivity and the Seebeck coefficient were consistent with the trends of an intrinsic semiconductor with a band gap ofabove. The lattice thermal conductivity had a low value of approximatelyabove, which is close to the theoretical minimum.
