Dear Xavier,

It means it is not defined with respect to the primitive lattice vectors.
The lattice parameters given in case.struct file are sometimes for the conventional unit cell.

I appreciate if you can confirm.

Thanks,

Jianxin

Dear Colleague

The notation is with three indices.

It will be along the directions defined in your case.struct file.

In other words, if you put 0 0 1, it will be along the c-axis of your case.struct file.

Best Regards

Xavier

Dear Wien2k users

I want to introduce the spin-orbit coupling in my calculation for a hexagonal structure.

Would you inform me which notation should we use to introduce the spin direction : that of 3 indicesor that of 4 indices.

NB: The spin direction for my case is the z direction

Best regards
