Topological complexity of crystal structures: quantitative approach.
The topological complexity of a crystal structure can be quantitatively evaluated using complexity measures of its quotient graph, which is defined as a projection of a periodic network of atoms and bonds onto a finite graph. The Shannon information-based measures of complexity such as topological information content, I(G), and information content of the vertex-degree distribution of a quotient graph, I(vd), are shown to be efficient for comparison of the topological complexity of polymorphs and chemically related structures. The I(G) measure is sensitive to the symmetry of the structure, whereas the I(vd) measure better describes the complexity of the bonding network.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances publishes articles reporting advances in the theory and practice of all areas of crystallography in the broadest sense. As well as traditional crystallography, this includes nanocrystals, metacrystals, amorphous materials, quasicrystals, synchrotron and XFEL studies, coherent scattering, diffraction imaging, time-resolved studies and the structure of strain and defects in materials.
The journal has two parts, a rapid-publication Advances section and the traditional Foundations section. Articles for the Advances section are of particularly high value and impact. They receive expedited treatment and may be highlighted by an accompanying scientific commentary article and a press release. Further details are given in the November 2013 Editorial.
The central themes of the journal are, on the one hand, experimental and theoretical studies of the properties and arrangements of atoms, ions and molecules in condensed matter, periodic, quasiperiodic or amorphous, ideal or real, and, on the other, the theoretical and experimental aspects of the various methods to determine these properties and arrangements.
