Atoms in the conventional cell

40 (Mn 4, Cr 4, Sb 4, Ca 4, O 24)

Formula units Z

4

Pearson symbol

tP40 — tetragonal, primitive lattice, 40 atoms per conventional cell

Symmetry operations

8 per cell

Crystallographic sites

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 40 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

ABCD6E_tP40_86_e_c_ab_3g_d-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol tP40, then the space-group number 86, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Mn: 2a; Mn: 2b; Cr: 4c; Sb: 4d; Ca: 4e; O: 8g; O: 8g; O: 8g). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
