Fresnoite oxides : synthesis, crystal chemistry and possible melilite intergrowth

Fresnoites (A2BC2O8) and melilites (A2BC2O7) are layered oxides whose basic structures are modified by crystallographic modulation arising from the need to accommodate pentagonal oxygen rings that cannot fill space without distortion. The modulations are systematized using higher dimensional space g...
