The Braggs concluded their historic communication entitled "The Structure of the Diamond" with the succinct statement: "...Zincblende appears to have the same structure, but the (111) planes contain alternately only zinc and only sulfur atoms. In this way the crystal acquires polarity and becomes hemihedral..." See: Bragg, W. H.; Bragg, W. L. Nature 1913, 91, 557.

35. It should be mentioned that the close-packing principle sometimes can be satisfied by the combination of interpenetration and clathration within the same crystal. See, for example: Zhang, J.; Lin, W.; Chen, Z.-F.; Xiong, R.-G.; Abrahams, B. F.; Fun, H.-K. J. Chem. Soc., Dalton Trans. 2001, 1806.

From the point of view of crystal symmetry, this assumption is probably incorrect; yet these two types of cavities do possess quite different (either tetrahedral or octahedral) symmetry of electrostatic potential. In our case, the tetrahedral ammonium ion occupies cavities with symmetrically aligned (tetrahedral) arrangements of halide.

The powder X-ray diffraction pattern of the sample supplied for the measurements of the second harmonics generation coincided with the powder diffraction pattern simulated from the single-crystal X-ray measurements as described in Figure S4 in the Supporting Information. This result confirms the crystallographic authenticity of the samples used for the structural/optical measurements.
