Abstract

Attention is called to the value to be derived from application of diffraction analysis of modern grade to specific, familiar, approximately known crystallizations. Features consequent to ordering of coordination polyhedra of differing sizes in layer structures are discussed, and their bearing upon relations between lattice parameters and chemical compositions are outlined.
