From X-ray analysis, the conclusions are drawn from averaged molecular informations. Thus, limitations are caused when analyzing systems whose symmetry is reduced due to interatomic interactions. In contrast, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) directly images atomic scale surface electron density distribution, with a resolution up to fractions of Angstrom units. The crucial point is the correlation between the electron density distribution and the localization of individual atoms, which is reasonable in many cases. Thus, the use of STM images for crystal structure determination may be permitted. We tried to apply RuCl3 - a layered material with semiconductive properties - for such STM studies. From the X-ray analysis it has been assumed that α-form of this compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m (AICI3 type). The chlorine atoms form an almost undistorted cubic closed package while Ru occupies 2/3 of the octahedral holes in every second layer building up a plane hexagon net (graphite net). Idealizing the arrangement of the chlorines a hexagonal symmetry would be expected. X-ray structure determination of isotypic compounds e.g. IrBr3 leads only to averaged positions of the metal atoms as there exist extended stacking faults of the metal layers.

In a θ-pinch the radial symmetry of the electron density distribution as a function of time has been measured by a MACH—ZEHNDER interferometer. In a time interval of 400 nsec during a discharge an image converter made three pictures (exposure times of 10 nsec each) . Up to 100 nsec after the first compression, the experimental results show different density distributions for the cases of trapped parallel and antiparallel magnetic fields. Complete radial symmetry of the electron density distribution was not found.Another interferometric method for measuring the radial symmetry of the electron distribution by observing “zero order” fringes is described.
