33. Strictly speaking, the structures of the R and - layers were the same. Both layers contained 12 THF molecules. In this study, 12 empty small cages, which were placed between THF molecular planes of the R and - layers, were defined to be included in the - layer. The R layer was defined as a thin layer containing 12 THF molecules atop the γ layer, and the - layer was defined as a thin layer containing 12 THF molecules and 12 empty small cage sites atop the R layer. According to those definitions, growth of those divided layers was defined to occur in sequence of the R, - and γ layers on the upper clathrate interface in Figure 2c and in sequence of γ, R, and - layers on the lower clathrate interface in Figure 2c.
