Crystallographic sites
| Site | Element | Wyckoff | Multiplicity | x | y | z |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Na1 | Na | 8a | 8 | 0.1250 | 0.1250 | 0.1250 |
| Tl2 | Tl | 8b | 8 | 0.3750 | 0.3750 | 0.3750 |
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 16 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 192 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
AB_cF16_227_a_b-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol cF16, then the space-group number 227, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Na: 8a; Tl: 8b). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
