Figure 8
(a) Visualization of hydro­static components of the piezoelectricity tensor in relation to the crystal structure of β-glycine. (b) Polarization vector P is oriented along the axis of maximum hydro­static compressibility, which is parallel to the y axis (and b lattice vector). Red, green and blue colors of dotted lines correspond to II, III and IV hydrogen bonds, respectively. Symmetrically non-equivalent glycine molecules are colored in green and red. Symmetry codes of acceptors in hydrogen bonds: (II) x, y, z − 1; (III) −x, y + ½, −z; (IV) −x, y + ½, −z + 1.
