Abstract

Angular-resolved photoelectron spectra from the fivefold surface of single-grain icosahedral ${\mathrm{Al}}_{70}$${\mathrm{Pd}}_{21.5}$${\mathrm{Mn}}_{8.5}$ exhibit a quasiperiodic dispersion of 300 meV at 2.3 eV binding energy. Low energy electron diffraction studies confirm quasicrystalline order at the surface. A distinct pseudogap feature is observed with a density of states near the Fermi level decreasing as a square-root power law.
