Tutorial on Chemical Pressure Analysis: How Atomic Packing Drives Laves/Zintl Intergrowth in K<sub>3</sub>Au<sub>5</sub>Tl
The tight atomic packing generally exhibited by alloys and intermetallics can create the impression of their being composed of hard spheres arranged to maximize their density. As such, the atomic size factor has historically been central to explanations of the structural chemistry of these systems....
