Connectivity pattern
Examples
The layers are stacked along the [001] direction using the following connectivity patterns

  mirrow plane shown as a solid line in the example
 

* relative to the previous layer


 
Effect on channel system
  The disorder does not block the channel system
Simplest ordered end members
The color of each layer reflects the symmetry operation used to generate it from the previous layer
