Notes:
The structure of a new modification of Ti2Se, the β-phase, and several related inorganic crystal structures containing elements with atomic numbers between 16 and 40 have been solved by quasi-automatic direct methods from single-crystal electron diffraction patterns of nanometre-size crystals, using the kinematical aproximation. The crystals were several thousand times smaller than the minimum size required for single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Atomic coordinates were found with an average accuracy of 0.2 Å or better. Experimental data were obtained by standardized techniques for recording and quantifying electron diffraction patterns. The SIR97 program for solving crystal structures from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data by direct methods was modified to work also with two-dimensional electron diffraction data.
