Local Symmetry of a Channel for the Transport of Atoms and Molecules and Its Internal Dimensions

Resumo

The effect of a channel’s symmetry type on its internal dimensions, which would allow the movement of atoms (ions, molecules), has been discussed. Based on the symmetry properties of the Lagrange function for the channel and the properties of the channel itself, its internal dimensions are determined. The particular example of the crystallographic channel of quartz and its dislocations is considered.
