I think it is easier to provide couple of examples:

zpool create pool c1t0d0 mirror c1t1d0 c1t2d0

This command would create storage pool with name 'pool' consisting of 2 
top-level vdevd:

first is c1t0d0
second is a mirror of c1t1d0 c1t2d0

Though it is not recommended to combine top-level vdevs with different 
replication setting in one pool.

ZFS will distribute blocks of data between these two top-level vdevs 
automatically, so blocks of data which end up on mirror will be 
protected, and blocks of data which end up on single disk will not be 
protected.


zpool add pool c1t0d0

would add another single-disk top level to the pool 'pool'


zpool add pool raidz c3t0d0 c4t0d0 c5t0d0

would add another raidz top-level vdev to our pool.

Inside ZFS disks forming mirror and raidz are called vdev also, but not 
top-level vdevs.
