The combinatorial-topological analysis of the structures of framework Li,Ge
-germanates of the compositions (Li2GeGe2IV)-Ge-VI O-6(OH)(2) (sp. gr. B-2/
b), (Li2GeGe3O9)-Ge-VI-O-IV (sp. gr. Pcca), (Li4Ge2Ge7O20)-Ge-VI-O-VI (sp.
gr. C2), and (Li2GeGe6O15)-Ge-VI-O-IV (sp. gr. Pbcn) has been made with the
separation of subpolyhedral structural units (SPSUs) built by octahedra an
d tetrahedra. The topologically invariant SPSUs are separated in three-dime
nsional frameworks of the structures. A possible mechanism of the matrix as
semblage from the SPSU invariants in crystal structures of the framework Li
,Ge-germanates is suggested. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
