  • We have shifted the origin of (Schönberg, 1954) to give the smallest possible Wyckoff indicies.

\[ \begin{array}{ccc} \mathbf{a_{1}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{2}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{3}}&=&c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}} \end{array}\]

Basis vectors

Lattice coordinates Cartesian coordinates Wyckoff position Atom type
$\mathbf{B_{1}}$ = $0$ = $0$ (1a) Ta I
$\mathbf{B_{2}}$ = $\frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{3}$ = $\frac{1}{2}c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}$ (1b) O I
$\mathbf{B_{3}}$ = $\frac{1}{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{1}+\frac{2}{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{6}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}$ (1c) N I
$\mathbf{B_{4}}$ = $\frac{2}{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{1}+\frac{1}{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{2}+\frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{3}$ = $\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{6}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}+\frac{1}{2}c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}$ (1f) Zr I
