| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Au-Al-Yb quasicrystal with Tsai-type cluster exhibits novel quantum critical phenomena as observed in Yb-based heavy fermion materials with intermediate Yb valence, while the Au-Al-Yb approximant shows heavy Fermi liquid behavior. The quantum critical state of the Au-Al-Yb quasicrystal might correspond to an electronic state unique to the quasicrystals. In the process of material research, we have found superconductivity of Au-Ge-Yb approximants with Tsai-type cluster. Furthermore, we have confirmed the emergence of bulk superconductivity of Al-Zn-Mg quasicrystal at a very low transition temperature [1]. Comparison between the quasicrystal and the approximants demonstrate that the effective interaction between electrons remains attractive under variation of the atomic arrangement. In superconducting quasicrystal, the fractal geometry might interplay with superconductivity: fractal superconductivity.
