What is important to remember
• iQCs can be described as 6D periodic crystals.
• Occupation domain (OD) can be considered as
atom in the 6D periodic crystal.
• Each OD has a specific size and shape.
• The symmetry of OD is equal to or higher than
the site-symmetry.

Summary
• The 6D structure of iQCs can be known by the 6D
electron densities obtained through a phase retrieval of
diffraction data.
• Respective iQCs have different 6D crystal structures.
• Result of phase retrieval is a starting point of structure
analysis of iQCs.
• The purpose of the structure analysis of QCs is to
determine the 3D atomic structure, which means that to
determine the detailed shape of occupation, to specify its
location and to reveal the distribution of constituent
elements in it.
