The reciprocal lattices of cP, cI and cF. (a) cP* ↔ [hR^*_{\rm r}][hR^*_{\rm h}]. (b) cI* [\Leftrightarrow] [hR^*_{\rm r}][hR^*_{\rm h}]. (c) cF* [\Leftrightarrow] [hR^*_{\rm r}][hR^*_{\rm h}]. The equally drawn reciprocal unit cells for P *, I * and F * are red in (a) but dark grey in (b) and (c). I * and F * have an incomplete occupation of the corners with reciprocal-lattice points. Therefore, the reciprocal-lattice point arrangement appears like a face-centred lattice for I * in panel (b) but like a body-centred lattice for cF * in panel (c). The red frame represents in each panel the primitive cell, which is rhombohedral in (b) and (c). The hexagonal cell (green) results in a primitive superlattice when the red centred reciprocal-lattice points have not been discovered by Kikuchi bands.
