Abstract

The interpretation of translational symmetry as a consequence of the formation of a complex of standing planar elastic oscillations in atomic systems explains the stability of crystalline state. It supplements conventional crystallography with the energetic function of spatial symmetry, as well as reveals the mechanisms and sequence of atomic-site ordering. The standard technique of crystallographic analysis is demonstrated on the example of orthoborate structures: trigonal and monoclinic modifications of H3BO3 and hexagonal modification of Tl3BO3.
