SystematicAbsentQ
​
SystematicAbsentQ
[group,{h,k,l}]
returns
True
if the
hkl
reflection is systematically absent for space
group
, and
False
otherwise.

SystematicAbsentQ
[group,{{
h
1
,
k
1
,
l
1
},{
h
2
,
k
2
,
l
2
},…}]
returns a list where each reflection
hkl
i
has been checked for systematical absence for space
group
.

Reflection
01
2
is systematic absent (extinct) for space group
I
4
1
/acd
:
In[1]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["I41/acd",{0,1,-2}]
Out[1]=
True
while reflection
123
is not:
In[2]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["I41/acd",{1,2,3}]
Out[2]=
False
​
In the case of silicon, reflection
111
is not extinct, but
123
is. This follows from the reflection condition for face-centred crystals (all Miller indices must be either odd or even).
In[1]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["Silicon",{1,1,1}]
Out[1]=
False
In[2]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["Silicon",{1,2,3}]
Out[2]=
True
Owing to the occupation of Wyckoff position
8 a
in the silicon crystal, special conditions in addition to the general ones may come into play:
In[3]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["Silicon",{2,2,2}]
Out[3]=
True
In[4]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["Fd-3m:2",{2,2,2}]
Out[4]=
False
​
Multiple reflections:
In[1]:=
hkl={{0,0,2},{1,1,1},{0,1,2},{2,2,2},{2,0,3},{5,3,1}};​​
SystematicAbsentQ
["CalciumFluoride",hkl]
Out[1]=
{False,True,True,False,True,True}
In[2]:=
SystematicAbsentQ
["Silicon",{{0,0,2},{1,1,1},{2,0,3}}]
Out[2]=
{True,False,True}
