Abstract
Polytypism is a crystallographic property of now a large number of crystallized, organic as well as inorganic, substances. Among inorganic substances, this property is displayed by crystals of some metals, metallic alloys, semiconducting compounds of the III-V, II-VI, I-VII and ternary types as well. It is also found in silicate minerals like chain-, ribbon-, and sheet-silicates but also among non-silicate minerals like diamond, graphite, molybdenite, pyrrhotite, perovskites, for instance.
