Abstract
Résumé

Quasicrystals have been puzzling scientists since their discovery. In this article we review some of the recent advances in this field and show how the use of large scale facilities has brought in decisive information for the understanding of their structure and physical properties.

Les quasicristaux ont intrigué les scientifiques depuis leur découverte. Dans cet article nous passons en revue certaines des avancées récentes dans ce domaine, et montrons comment lʼutilisation des grands instruments a apporté des informations décisives pour la compréhension de leur structure et de leurs propriétés physiques.
