Figure 4
Neglecting satellite reflections and solving the structure in the basic cell corresponds to averaging the contents of the eight unit cells shown in either of the top rows of Fig. 2(a) by shifting the molecules parallel to a into one cell (H atoms omitted for clarity; the molecules from Fig. 2 have been moved towards each other already). Consequently, the resulting average structure is characterized by large displacement ellipsoids and, in the case of a strong modulation, also by unrealistic geometric parameters. |
