Understanding the Topology of Simple Coordination Structures in Nonmolecular Solids – A Course on Symmetry and Catenation of Polyhedra

Abstract We present a course explaining structural features found in inorganic ion crystals aiming to give an outline to lecturers for a stepwise introduction to specific structural phenomena. It deals with the symmetry of polyhedra and its modification starting from isolated one...
