Figure 9
A portion of the KSm(MoO4)2 aperiodic structure in the ab projection. The green and yellow spheres indicate A = (K1-xSmx) positions for x < 0.5 and x > 0.5, respectively. The [MoO4] tetrahedra are represented by their edges. The grey and white wave indicates the continuously changing chemical composition from mainly {K[MoO4]} (centre of the grey part) to mainly {Sm[MoO4]} (centre of the white part). The direction and length of this wave (arrow) is parallel to the q vector with length 1/|q|. Darker spheres indicate mainly K (x < 0.01) and mainly Sm (x > 0.99) A positions. The a and b unit-cell translations are indicated for the A site by dashed lines.
