[Wien] Type II AFM MnO

Thanks for the suggestion. No I did not change the atom to Fe.

As you point out, AFM II shows AFM ordering along FCC (111) planes. 
However, it is hard to see what the ordering in each structure is because 
the lattice vectors are not cubic. A  simple way to see the ordering is to 
take the two structures lattice vectors and transform them to simple 
cubic lattice vectors (with more atoms than in the primitive cell). In 
that case it is easier to visualize what the ordering is in that 
structure. Namely, whether all the Mn1 and Mn2 atoms are segregated to 
different (111) planes or not. This is what I had in mind. For this, I 
just needed the lattice vectors and positions of the atoms in terms of 
the lattice vectors.

Regards,
Manish
