Influence of Chemical and Spatial Constraints on the Structures of Inorganic Compounds

Abstract

The restrictions imposed by both chemistry and three-dimensional space on the structures of inorganic crystals can be analysed using the bond-valence model and space-group theory. The bond-valence model is used to construct a bond graph (connectivity table) from which the multiplicities and possible site symmetries of each atom can be assigned. These are matched to Wyckoff positions of the three-dimensional space groups, selecting the matching …
