a The structural model of d-CNM. The orange dotted line represents the rotational axis, and the arrow represents the rotational direction. b, c Simulated 3D ED of the d-CNM crystal. Parameter setting: the number of lattices is 12, and the rotation step and twisting step are 0.6° for each lattice. d The schematic structural model is composed of helically stacked twisted nanosheets in l-CTD. e The structural model of l-CTD. The orange dotted line represents the rotational axis. f, g The simulated 3D ED of l-CTD. The parameter settings are as follows: the number of lattices is twenty-three, the rotation step is 0.2° for each lattice, and the twisting step is 0.15° for each lattice.
