Abstract: | The structure of zinc sulfide single crystals grown from the vapor has been studied by a unique combination of X-ray crystallography and thermal conductivity measurements. Weissenberg patterns reveal the face centered cubic structure with rotational twinning in the 111] direction, which could be ascribed to two overlapping lattices. These could be explained by normal stacking faults or by inverted twins. A strong anisotropy in thermal conductivity was measured and interpreted as favoring the inverted twin model. |
