The complex dielectric functions of -rhombohedral boron, of boron carbide with compositions between B 4.23 C and B 10.37 C and YB 66 , were measured between about 2.5 and 9.5 eV. Similarities of the electronic structures probably due to the icosahedra are indicated by obvious qualitative similaritie

Optical conductivities and dielectric functions derived from the IR-optical reflectivity spectra exhibit clear similarities between icosahedral boron-rich structures and Al-based isosahedral quasicyrstals. This suggests a close qualitative relationship of their electronic structures. Accordingly ico

For -rhombohedral boron and boron carbide, the hitherto best-investigated icoasahedral boron-rich solids, the concentrations of structural defects and electronic gap states are quantitatively correlated. In this way the theoretically determined valence electron de5ciencies are exactly compensated, a

Modulated photocurrent measurements were performed on amorphous boron, -rhombohedral boron, and Al-Pd-Re quasicrystal. For the quasicrystal, this is the first report on photoconductivity. The data obtained for amorphous boron are analyzed by a typical model which assumes interband photocarrier gener
