Figure 4
Quartz file data loaded with exact application of symmetry operators (load quartz.cif {555 555 0}). Only four of the nine atoms are contained within cell 555. In this case, there are six symmetry operators, including the identity operation. Note that the Si atoms (large) are in special positions and are generated by two symmetry operators each, while the O atoms (small) are in general positions.










The script commands and data file used by Jmol are available from Crystallography Journals Online as supplementary material for this article.
