1. (20점) Figure is a plane pattern from M.C. Escher.

(a) (5점) Outline the unit mesh.

(b) (5점) Indicate the positions of all the symmetry elements within the unit mesh.
(c) (5점) Work out the plane lattice symbol.
(d) (5점) Enter on separate place a point in a general site x, y and allow the
symmetry to operate on it (use the asymmetric symbol q). Give the coordinates of
the points equivalent to x, y. What is the multiplicity of the general position?

2. (40점) The symmetry diagrams for a space group is given below as projections
on x, y, 0.
(a) (5점) Find the symmetry elements.
(b) (5점) Work out the space group symbol.
(c) (5점) What is crystal system this space group belongs to?
(d) (5점) What is the point group?
(e) (5점) Enter on the diagram a point in a general site x, y, z, and allow the
symmetry to operate on it (use the symbol in the International Tables for X-ray
Crystallography ) and give the coordinates of the points equivalent to x,y,z.
(f) (5점) What is the multiplicity of the general position?
(g) (5점) Indicate a special position-if there are any-and give its multiplicity.
(h) (5점) Indicate an asymmetric unit

3.(20점) Consider independent atoms with the following coordinates in the space

group symmetry C2/m (C12/m1):

Atom1: x=0.15, y=0.0, z=0.33, Atom2: x=0.50, y=0.11, z=0.50

Atom3: x=0.25, y=0.25, z=0.25

Using the international tables for Crystallography (given in the following page),

carry out the following tasks.

(a)(5점) What is the point group? What is crystal system? What is the lattice

type?

(b)(5점) Apply the coordinates and centering vectors listed for the general

equivalent position to generate all symmetrically equivalent atoms from the three

listed independent atoms (the total in each case should be the same as the

multiplicity of the general position).

(c)(5점) Find atoms with equal coordinate triplets (remember that the difference by

a full translation in one, two or three directions refers to the same atom) and cross

them out. The total number of atoms left is the multiplicity of the corresponding

special position.
(d)(5점) Establish both the multiplicity and the Wyckoff notation of special position

for each of the three listed independent atoms.

4.(20점)
(a)(5점) There are 5 plane lattices and 10 plane point groups along with glide
plane. What criterion is applied to combine these two for the plane groups?
(b) (5점) Criticize the space group symbol Pab21.
(c) (5점) Prove that the monoclinic I-lattice can be converted to a monoclinic
C-lattice.
(d) (5점) Fill in the blank.
