The SiF₄ 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: SiF₄
• Pearson Symbol: cI10
• Space Group: I43m (Cartesian and lattice coordinate listings available)
• Number: 217
• Reference: Wyckoff Crystal Structures Vol. II, p. 127.
• Primitive Vectors:

  A1	=	-½ a X + ½ a Y + ½ a Z
  A2	=	+ ½ a X - ½ a Y + ½ a Z
  A3	=	+ ½ a X + ½ a Y - ½ a Z

• Basis Vectors:

  B1	=		0		(2a)	(Si)
  B2	=	+ 2 x A1 + 2 x A2 + 2 x A3	=	+ x a X + x a Y + x a Z	(8c)	(F)
  B3	=	- 2 x A1	=	+ x a X - x a Y - x a Z	(8c)	(F)
  B4	=	- 2 x A2	=	- x a X + x a Y - x a Z	(8c)	(F)
  B5	=	- 2 x A3	=	- x a X - x a Y + x a Z	(8c)	(F)
