Abstract
The volume diffusion of 59Fe in Al62Cu25.5Fe12.5 Icosahedral quasicrystals is analyzed using classical diffusion techniques. Over the temperature range from 550°C to 800°C, the volume diffusion coefficients show a classical diffusion behavior and the temperature dependence can be expressed by the following relation : [MATH]. In the absence of data on a crystalline phase with similar composition, diffusion coefficients are compared to those obtained for Fe in aluminium and in aluminides (FeAl and Al13Fe4) : no strong peculiarity linked to the quasicrystalline structure appears.
