The first quasicrystal (QC) structure was observed in 1984. QCs possess long-range orientational and translational order while lacking the periodicity of crystals. An overview is given on some physical properties of QCs. It begins with group theory and symmetry, Then the thermodynamics of equilibrium properties and physical property tensors are discussed. Finally, the generalized elasticity theory of QCs and the elasticity theory of dislocations in QCs are presented.
