✦ Synopsis

The interaction energy between two periodic crystals obeys a structure registry condition. When the 2D periodic structures in the atomic planes parallel to the surfaces of the two crystals are not coincident, the energy contribution which accounts for the discrete characteristics of the solids along these planes vanishes. The remaining continuum potential is then unable to discriminate between the atomic distribution of surface atoms when one crystal is laterally translated with respect to the other. This registry condition leads to drastic changes in the interaction energy between two ionic crystals and can be responsible for the disappearance of specific structural properties in solids.

An attempt has been made to represent the interaction energy between two polar molecules by using an 'effective' relative orientation of tile pair of the colliding molecules. Calculations made for gaseous ammonia show fairly satisfactory results.
