Abstract

Rhombohedral twins of the ternary semiconductor TIBiTe2 have been studied and it has been found that they were either coherent or non-coherent. By an appropriate approximation of the rhombohedral angle by a pair of integersp andq, the rhombohedral twins can be described by the coincidence site lattice (CSL) model. Since the best description for reflection twins is to note the lattice plane (hkl) acting as a mirror plane, the (hkl) description has been used. It has been found that the coherent twins are described by a CSL with low multiplicity ∑, and the non-coherent ones by a CSL with high multiplicity ∑.
