Crystallographic sites
| Site | Element | Wyckoff | Multiplicity | x | y | z |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ti1 | Ti | 4a | 4 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 |
| Ca2 | Ca | 4c | 4 | 0.9877 | 0.2500 | 0.5084 |
| O3 | O | 4c | 4 | 0.5313 | 0.2500 | 0.4414 |
| O4 | O | 8d | 8 | 0.2880 | 0.5370 | 0.2130 |
The multiplicity and the Wyckoff letter say how many copies of the site the group makes in one cell and on which kind of symmetry element the site sits; the 20 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 8 operations. Press Wyckoff under Colour to see the sites, and tick a symmetry element on the left to see which atoms lie on it.
How to read the label
AB3C_oP20_62_c_cd_a-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol oP20, then the space-group number 62, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Ti: 4a; Ca: 4c; O: 4c; O: 8d). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
