The FeB (B27) Structure

You can now

• see the structure from several perspectives;
• examine the structure with an external viewer; or
• download the coordinates of the atoms in these pictures in XYZ format.
• visualize the structure (Uses the JMOL Applet)

• Prototype: FeB
• Pearson Symbol: oP8
• Strukturbericht Designation: B27
• Space Group: Pnma (Cartesian and lattice coordinate listings available)
• Number: 62
• Primitive Vectors:

  A1	=	a X
  A2	=	b Y
  A3	=	c Z

• Basis Vectors:

  B1	=	+ x1A1 + ¼ A2 + z1A3	=	+ x1 aX + ¼ bY + z1 cZ	(4c)	(Fe)
  B2	=	- x1A1 - ¼ A2 - z1A3	=	- x1 aX - ¼ bY - z1 cZ	(4c)	(Fe)
  B3	=	(½ - x1) A1 - ¼ A2 + (½ + z1)A3	=	+ (½ - x1) aX - ¼ bY + (½ + z1) cZ	(4c)	(Fe)
  B4	=	(½ + x1) A1 + ¼ A2 + (½ - z1)A3	=	+ (½ + x1) aX + ¼ bY + (½ - z1) cZ	(4c)	(Fe)
  B5	=	+ x2A1 + ¼ A2 + z2A3	=	+ x2 aX + ¼ bY + z2 cZ	(4c)	(B)
  B6	=	- x2A1 - ¼ A2 - z2A3	=	- x2 aX - ¼ bY - z2 cZ	(4c)	(B)
  B7	=	(½ - x2) A1 - ¼ A2 + (½ + z2)A3	=	+ (½ - x2) aX - ¼ bY + (½ + z2) cZ	(4c)	(B)
  B8	=	(½ + x2) A1 + ¼ A2 + (½ - z2)A3	=	+ (½ + x2) aX + ¼ bY + (½ - z2) cZ	(4c)	(B)
