Figure 6. Binary metallic compared with a ternary oxide.

Figure 6

A schematic representation of two lattices illustrating how the first-near-neighbour environments between species having different electronegativity (the darker the more negative charge localized) for (a) a random binary metal alloy and (b) a random pseudo-binary mixed oxide. In the latter, near-neighbour cations are interrupted by intermediate common anions.
