Notes:
New tools are nowadays available to solve the crystallographic structure of complexcompounds in metallic alloy systems and a vivid interest manifests itself to discover newcompounds in multi-constituent alloys with hundreds or more atoms per unit cell. Meanwhile, it isobserved that the metallic character of the alloy progressively disappears with increasing thenumber of atoms in the unit cell. This contribution focuses at a few examples of this atypicalbehavior of complex metallic alloys, including quasicrystals as the ultimate state of structuralcomplexity in a crystal made of metals. Emphasis is put on surface properties
