This thesis addresses the structural rationale behind the formation of growth twins, with the purpose of opening a route to the future development of synthesis protocols to reduce the occurrence frequency of twinning. The reason for this effort is that twinning affects negatively the physico-chemical properties of materials and biomaterials of technological interests and reduces the quality of the experimental data on which the structural investigation is based. While on the one hand the reasons for twinning in transformation and mechanical twins are well understood, in the case of growth twins twinning is still seen as an accident linked to aleatory conditions where kinetics, rather than thermodynamics, plays a principal role. A general ap...
