This article is a 'stub' about water and/or ice. It has no, or next to no, content. It is here at the moment to help form part of the structure of SklogWiki. If you add material to this article, remove the {{Stub-water}} template from this page.

Ice XI is the proton-ordered form of Ice Ih and was identified in 1972 by Shuji Kawada and others (Ref. 1-3). In principle ice XI forms when ice Ih is cooled to below 72K. It has an orthorhombic structure with the space group Cmc21 with eight molecules per unit cell (Ref. 4) Its lattice parameters are a=4.465(3) Å, b=7.859(4) Å, and c=7.292(2) Å at 5 K (Ref. 4).
