title: Non-periodicity in nanoparticles with close-packed structures.
abstract: Experimentally it is observed that nanomaterials from II-VI compounds like CdS have a high density of stacking faults. It is argued that these are not crystal defects but rather that they represent a characteristic feature of nanomaterials.
