We measured the orientation dependent ²⁷Al NMR spectra of a decagonal Al-Ni-Co quasicrystal. In order to explain the experimental results, we had to introduce a model of EFGs in decagonal quasicrystals. The EFGs reflect the structure of quasicrystals. Therefore, from the comparison between the NMR results and the models of EFGs, we can test the atomic structure models of quasicrystals.
