Abstract

The combinatorial-topological analysis of the structures of framework Li,Ge-germanates of the compositions Li2GeVIGe IV2 O6(OH)2 (sp. gr. B 2/b), Li2GeVIGe IV3 O9 (sp. gr.Pcca), Li4Ge VI2 Ge VI7 O20 (sp. gr. C2), and Li2GeVIGe IV6 O15 (sp. gr. Pbcn) has been made with the separation of subpolyhedral structural units (SPSUs) built by octahedra and tetrahedra. The topologically invariant SPSUs are separated in three-dimensional frameworks of the structures. A possible mechanism of the matrix assemblage from the SPSU invariants in crystal structures of the framework Li,Ge-germanates is suggested.
