Abstract
The mean—square displacement amplitudes (MSDA) of the tetrahedral cations
Si and Al are compared to the MSDA of their coordinated O atoms in framework
silica polymorphs and aluminosilicate structures. Criteria are established which
indicate order, structural disorder or substitutional disorder in a framework crystal.
