Description
So, the Wyckoff positions are high-symmetry points in the conventional unit cell. This should be clearly stated in the descriptions. This is important, as not every crystal structure is reported in this structure. In the NOMAD front-end, we do, in fact, report the conventional unit cell in the topology hierarchy whenever possible.
Any Wyckoff analysis provides 2 kinds of information:
- Generic tabulation of the positions of the high-symmetry points. This is fully determined by the space group (type of symmetry for crystals), and the setting.
- Labeling of which atomic positions correspond to which symmetry positions.
I'm unsure whether we'll provide any search functionalities for Wyckoff, but it is super-useful for inferring the effects of a site on all kinds of observables.
