Is the AFMIII structure or not? **** I do not understand this question
NB: What's mysterious is this AFM structure that the space group is monoclinic and the lattice parameters are orthorhombic. **** My answer fits in this question; you have an orthorhombic cell, but it has atoms inside that break this symmetry, just as the example that I gave you, now the new symmetry is reduced. Imagine a 2D square with atoms at a,a -a,a a,-a -a,-a The symmetry is still square Now if you associate, due to magnetic ordering, that is you put two atoms up and two down Up; a,a -a,-a Dn; -a,a a,-a Then the structure is no longer square, it does not have 90 degrees rotations ________________________________ De: Wien <wien-boun...@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at> en nombre de Abderrahmane Reggad <jazai...@gmail.com> Enviado: sábado, 28 de octubre de 2017 06:22 a. m.
