Twinning of Crystals due to Differences between the Most Favourable Symmetric and Energetic Structural Arrangements, Part II

Abstract: Twins and oriented intergrowths are often caused by structural instabilities. A conflict arises between the highest symmetric and the most favourable energetic structural arrangement. A necessary condition for twin growth is the presence of lattice pseudosymmetries. This was shown with two additional examples, rnaleic acid and 3,5-dimethylbenzoic acid. Both substances are known practically only as twins. Using lattice-energy calculations, energetic arrangements that are more favourable were found in both cases… Show more
