A schematic representation of the geometry employed to explain the operations leading to the formation of the complex stacking fault and deformation twinning: (a) perfect structure, (b) complex stacking fault structure imposed by the first displacement operation: layers numbered 6–10 in the upper part, (c) two-layer pseudo twinning structure imposed by the second displacement operation: layers 1–5 in similar fashion. All configurations are separated from the rest by a vacuum.
