Polytypism, polysomatism, and twinning are fertile fields of research, and their basic principles?often coupled with the OD (order-disorder) theory?are powerful tools to solve and classify related crystal structures. Research on twinning and its consequences on structure and properties of crystalline materials is cutting-edge, e.g., dealing with relations between twin walls and piezoelectricity. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aEarth sciences, geography, environment, planning$2bicssc 610 $atetrahedrite 610 $atennantite 610 $atwinning 610 $aorder-disorder approach 610 $atetrahedral framework 610 $amodular structures 610 $apolysomes (series) 610 $asynthetic analogues of minerals 610 $atransition metal phosphates 610 $aX-ray diffraction 610 $aantiferromagnets 610 $afrustrated magnets 610 $akagome? lattice 610 $achemical ordering 610 $asuperstructure 610 $aspryite 610 $aargyrodite-type compounds 610 $aultra-low temperature 610 $aRE-silicate-germanate 610 $ahydrothermal synthesis 610 $alayered silicates 610 $amodular approach 610 $awollastonite chain 610 $atopology-symmetry analysis 610 $aOD theory 610 $astructure prediction 610 $aluminescence properties 610 $atwin wall 610 $atwin boundary 610 $aminerals 610 $aemerging properties 610 $apiezoelectricity in minerals 610 $asurface relaxations 610 $aanorthite 610 $aPamierite 610 $aperovskite 610 $aOD structures 610 $apolytypism 610 $apolymorphism 610 $aheteropolyhedral framework 610 $amodularity 610 $atopology 610 $aborophosphates 610 $aaluminophosphates 610 $aDFT 610 $aelectron diffraction 610 $ac-type reflections 610 $aordering 610 $acalcite 610 $aglendonite 610 $aTEM 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aEarth sciences, geography, environment, planning 700 $aFerraris$b Giovanni$4edt$0311188 702 $aFerraris$b Giovanni$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557527903321 996 $aModularity and Twinning in Mineral Crystal Structures$93022608 997 $aUNINA
