The CoSn (B35) 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: CoSn
• Pearson Symbol: hP6
• Strukturbericht Designation: B35
• Space Group: P6/mmm (Cartesian and lattice coordinate listings available)
• Number: 191
• Other systems with this structure: FeGe, PbRh, NTa, PtTl, InNi, OTi₂
• Primitive Vectors:

  A1	=	½ a X - ½ 31/2 a Y
  A2	=	½ a X + ½ 31/2 a Y
  A3	=	c Z

• Basis Vectors:

  B1	=		0		(Sn-I)	(1a)
  B2	=	1/3 A1 + 2/3 A2 + ½ A3	=	½ aX + 12-½ a Y + ½ c Z	(Sn-II)	(2d)
  B3	=	2/3 A1 + 1/3 A2 + ½ A3	=	½ a X - 12-½ a Y + ½ c Z	(Sn-II)	(2d)
  B4	=	½ A1	=	¼ a X - 3½/4 a Y	(Co)	(3f)
  B5	=	½ A2	=	¼ a X + 3½/4 a Y	(Co)	(3f)
  B6	=	½ A1 + ½ A2	=	½ a X	(Co)	(3f)
