Abstract:Abstract. Some basic theoretical considerations showed that the classical description of the crystalline state through a three dimensional periodicity is not sufficient to take into account all the possible long range order atomic structures. This long range order can be associated to a supercrystal described in a superspace of dimension n > 3. The real aperiodic structure and its experimental diffraction pattern can be recovered through a section-projection method in the superspace. Some actual examples of th… Show more
