The electron density distribution in lithium triborate LiB3O5 has been studied at room temperature by X-ray diffraction using Ag K \alpha radiation up to 1.02 Å−1 [1439 unique reflections with I > 3\sigma(I)]. Conventional refinements with a free-atom model yield R(F) = 0.0223, wR(F) = 0.0299, S = 1.632. Atom charge refinements show that the lithium should be considered a monovalent ion. Multipolar refinements were undertaken up to fourth order, imposing local non-crystallographic symmetry constraints in order to avoid phase problems leading to meaningless multipole populations due to the non-centrosymmetry of the structure (space group: Pn a21). The residual indices decreased to: R(F) = 0.0147, wR(F) = 0.0193, S = 1.106. The net charges are in good agreement with what can be expected in borate chemistry. Deformation density maps are analysed in terms of \sigma and \pi bonding. The experimental electron distribution in the p z orbitals of triangular B atoms and surrounding O atoms has been analysed by introducing idealized hybridized states. In parallel, the electron density has been determined from ab initio Hartree–Fock calculations on fragments of the structure. Agreement with the X-ray determination is very good and confirms the nature of bonding in the crystal. The amount of transfer of \pi electrons from the oxygen to the triangular B atoms is estimated to be 0.22 electrons by theory.

From X-ray analysis, the conclusions are drawn from averaged molecular informations. Thus, limitations are caused when analyzing systems whose symmetry is reduced due to interatomic interactions. In contrast, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) directly images atomic scale surface electron density distribution, with a resolution up to fractions of Angstrom units. The crucial point is the correlation between the electron density distribution and the localization of individual atoms, which is reasonable in many cases. Thus, the use of STM images for crystal structure determination may be permitted. We tried to apply RuCl3 - a layered material with semiconductive properties - for such STM studies. From the X-ray analysis it has been assumed that α-form of this compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m (AICI3 type). The chlorine atoms form an almost undistorted cubic closed package while Ru occupies 2/3 of the octahedral holes in every second layer building up a plane hexagon net (graphite net). Idealizing the arrangement of the chlorines a hexagonal symmetry would be expected. X-ray structure determination of isotypic compounds e.g. IrBr3 leads only to averaged positions of the metal atoms as there exist extended stacking faults of the metal layers.

Theta Pinch

In a θ-pinch the radial symmetry of the electron density distribution as a function of time has been measured by a MACH—ZEHNDER interferometer. In a time interval of 400 nsec during a discharge an image converter made three pictures (exposure times of 10 nsec each) . Up to 100 nsec after the first compression, the experimental results show different density distributions for the cases of trapped parallel and antiparallel magnetic fields. Complete radial symmetry of the electron density distribution was not found.Another interferometric method for measuring the radial symmetry of the electron distribution by observing “zero order” fringes is described.
