Isomorphism

Japanese: 同形 - どうけい(英語表記)isomorphism
Isomorphism

It is also called isomorphism, homomorphism, isomorphism, or homomorphism. In the narrow sense, isomorphism refers to crystals that can form mixed crystals (isomorphic mixed crystals) between crystals that belong to the same crystal structure type over a wide range of composition. This concept was established by the German E. E. Mitscherlich. Examples of this include the relationship between gold and silver, or potassium chloride and rubidium chloride. In the broad sense, isomorphism is simply when two substances belong to the same crystal structure type, but this is also called isotypy. An example is the relationship between sodium chloride and magnesium oxide, which both have sodium chloride-type crystal structures but do not form mixed crystals.

Japanese:

異質同形、異質同像、類質同形、同像などともいう。狭義には、広範囲な組成領域で同一の結晶構造型に属する結晶相互間の混晶(同形混晶)をつくりうるものどうしの結晶を同形という。ドイツのE・E・ミッチェルリヒが確立した概念である。たとえば金と銀、塩化カリウムと塩化ルビジウムなどの関係がそれにあたる。広義では、同じ結晶構造型に属するだけで同形というが、別にこれを同一構造形isotypyともいう。塩化ナトリウムと酸化マグネシウムとの関係がその例で、ともに塩化ナトリウム型の結晶構造をとるが、混晶はつくらない。
