Figure 5
A model of the lattice-translocation disorder. Tetramers are shown as blue shapes with white lines indicating the approximate contours of monomers. As in Fig. 2[link], two adjacent columns of tetramers can be related by one of the two alternative translation vectors, v1 or v2. Thin black rectangles indicate ordered domains with local P21212 symmetry, in which v1 and v2 alternate. Sequences of repeated vectors (here, v1v1v1) occur at lattice-translocation defects. The translocation vector td defines the relative shift of neighbouring domains from the position in which they would have formed a continuous single crystal.
