Abstract
The structure of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB) has been reinvestigated by a combination of electron diffraction, high-resoluti on imaging, simulations of electron diffraction patterns and images, a nd packing energy calculations. A new model is proposed that is capabl e of explaining the large second harmonic generation effect observed i n TATB crystalline powder.
