Li$_{2}$CN$_{2}$ Structure: AB2C2_tI10_139_a_d_e-002
- This structure has the same AFLOW prototype label, AB2C2_tI10_139_a_d_e, as autunite, Ca(UO$_{2}$)$_{2}$(PO$_{4}$)$_{2}$·10$\frac12$H$_{2}$O ($H5_{9}$). They are generated by the same symmetry operations with different sets of parameters (
--params) specified in their corresponding CIF files.
\[ \begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{a_{1}}&=&- \frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}+\frac{1}{2}c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}\\\mathbf{a_{2}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}- \frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}+\frac{1}{2}c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}\\\mathbf{a_{3}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}- \frac{1}{2}c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}
