Abstract

It is argued that the "microtwins model" for the intermediate phase of quartz, which has been proposed on the basis of electron microscope observations [for example, Phys. Rev. B 31, 2986 (1985], does not fit our x-ray observations, particularly the satellite reflections which depend on g (reflection) and q (modulation) vectors. The behavior in more than 20 Laue spots is well explained by the 3q model of "the configuration waves" which are primarily transverse.
