Abstract

Features of the powder diffraction patterns of known polytype-like modifications of Ca3GeO5, such as 2H, 9R and 24R types, and a monoclinic polymorph have been studied by means of the patterns calculated based on their crystal structures. The result has provided keys to identify them when they coexist in the same synthetic product. Accounts have been given on the crystallographic features of the building layer and rules for layer stackings of the modifications in general. Any modification may then be constructed to predict its powder diffraction pattern.
