Abstract
The average unit cell approach has been successfully used to construct the probability distributions of atomic displacements from the reference lattic e points and to calculate the diffraction patterns for two aperiodic struct ures - the Thue-Morse sequence and decorated Fibonacci chains. For the sing ular continuous diffraction pattern of the Thue-Morse sequence fractal expo nents and multiplication factors have been found for scaling with the numbe r of atoms. General method able to distinguish between various quasilattice decorations has been elaborated and tested for decorated Fibonacci chains. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
