In the last ten years, the chemistry and physics of materials with
layered structures became an intensively investigated field in the
study of the solid state. Research into physical properties of
these crystals and especially investigations of their physical
anisotropy related to the structural anisotropy has led to
remarkable and perplexing results. Most of the layered materials
exist in several polytypic modifications and can include stacking
faults. The crystal structures are therefore complex and it became
apparent that there was a great need for a review of the
crystallographic data of materials approximating two-dimensional
solids. This second volume in the series 'Physics and Chemistry of
Materials with Layered Structures' has been written by specialists
of different classes of layered materials. Structural data are
reviewed and the most important relations between the structure and
the chemical and physical properties are emphasized. The first
three contributions are devoted to the transition metal
dichalcogenides whose physical properties have been investigated in
detail. The crystallographic data and crystal growth conditions are
presented in the first paper. The second paper constitutes an
incisive review of the phase transformations and charge density
waves which have been observed in the metallic dichalcogenides. In
two contributions the layered structures of newer ternary compounds
are de scribed and the connection between structure and
non-stoichiometry is discussed."
