Elastic properties of heterodesmic composite structures: The case of calcite CaCO3 (space group R3¯c)
Composite-like structures are commonly found in nature and, among them, calcite (CaCO3, space group R3¯c) is made of alternately stacked layers of Ca2+ and triangular CO32− ions. The bonding scheme of this mineral results in an heterodesmic structure because the carbonate ions are made up of covalen...
