  2. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    A perfect octahedron belongs to the point group O h. Examples of octahedral compounds are sulfur hexafluoride SF 6 and molybdenum hexacarbonyl Mo(CO) 6 . The term "octahedral" is used somewhat loosely by chemists, focusing on the geometry of the bonds to the central atom and not considering differences among the ligands themselves.

  3. Jahn–Teller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jahn–Teller_effect

    The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.

  5. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    The shift of one node in a more dense direction requires a lesser distortion of the crystal lattice. Some directions and planes are defined by symmetry of the crystal system. In monoclinic, trigonal, tetragonal, and hexagonal systems there is one unique axis (sometimes called the principal axis ) which has higher rotational symmetry than the ...

  6. Pseudo Jahn–Teller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudo_Jahn–Teller_effect

    PJTE versus Renner–Teller effect in bending distortions. Linear molecules are exceptions from the JTE, and for a long time it was assumed that their bending distortions in degenerate states (observed in many molecules) is produced by the Renner–Teller effect (RTE) (the splitting of the generate state by the quadratic terms of the vibronic ...

  7. Rhombic dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_dodecahedron

    The rhombic dodecahedron can be viewed as the convex hull of the union of the vertices of a cube and an octahedron where the edges intersect perpendicularly. The six vertices where four rhombi meet correspond to the vertices of the octahedron, while the eight vertices where three rhombi meet correspond to the vertices of the cube.

  8. Lode coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lode_Coordinates

    If a non-isomorphic pair is used for the meridional profile then the normal to the yield surface will not appear normal in the meridional profile. Any pair of coordinates that differ from ( z , r ) {\displaystyle (z,r)} by constant multiples of equal absolute value are also isomorphic with respect to principal stress space.

  9. Octahedral cupola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_cupola

    In 4-dimensional geometry, the octahedral cupola is a 4-polytope bounded by one octahedron and a parallel rhombicuboctahedron, connected by 20 triangular prisms, and 6 square pyramids. [ 1 ] Related polytopes
