Introduction to symmetry operations and symmetry elements: screw axis

In this video, Hallam Greene introduces us to the screw axis symmetry element. Many of the symmetry elements of a crystal are the same as those of discrete molecules: mirror planes, rotation axes, inversion centres and improper rotation axes, which we introduced in our previous video "Introduction to Symmetry Operations and Point Groups". However, crystal structures also have another class of symmetry operations that involve a translational element: screw axes and glide planes. In this video we look at screw axes. First, we describe the symmetry operation performed by a screw axis by comparing it to the behaviour of a screw. Then, we see the nomenclature and we look in detail at the 2-1 screw axis (twofold), the 3-1 screw axis (threefold), the 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3 screw axes (fourfold), and the 6-1 screw axis (sixfold). Resources: - Explore symmetry operations, and in particular screw axes, in 3D by manipulating crystal structures from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) using the CCDC's visualisation software Mercury. A free version of CCDC's Mercury is available to download: https://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/Community/... - Structures in the CSD are identified with refcodes. You will find of interest structures with refcode: ADRENL, AECLPA10, DAWGOX, NUCKOL, HYDTML, LCYSTI10, JAGREP, ESAMOA, APRETS01, UGOQAL, LOLWIS. All refcodes for the crystal structures displayed are shown in the video.
