Is the AFMIII structure or not?
**** I do not understand this question


NB:   What's mysterious is this AFM structure that the space group is monoclinic and the lattice parameters are orthorhombic.
**** My answer fits in this question; you have an orthorhombic cell, but it has atoms inside that break this symmetry, just as the example that I gave you, now the new symmetry is reduced.

Imagine a 2D square with atoms at

a,a

-a,a

a,-a

-a,-a

The symmetry is still square

Now if you associate, due to magnetic ordering, that is you put two atoms up and two down

Up; a,a   -a,-a

Dn; -a,a  a,-a

Then the structure is no longer square, it does not have 90 degrees rotations

Thanks Delamora for your answer and this is not what i am looking for and I am sorry that I couldn't communicate what I want.

My problem is as follows:

1- I am considering this non magnetic structure (orthorhombic )

* the non-magnetic structure is in this link

https://ibb.co/nt2nFm

* The struct file is:


NiS-MnP

P   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS:  2 62_Pnma

   8      NUMBER OF SYMMETRY OPERATIONS



2- I want to construct the AFM structure of type III as in the following link



https://ibb.co/mqySFm



* I have used the supercell 1x1x1 P to make the four Ni atoms independent


* I have put the atoms (X=0.00500000 Y=0.25000000 Z=0.20000000) and (X=0.99500000 Y=0.75000000 Z=0.80000000) to UP


and the atoms (X=0.50500000 Y=0.25000000 Z=0.30000000) and (X=0.49500000 Y=0.75000000 Z=0.70000000) to DOWN


* I have used the sgroup


- I get the following AFM structure

My question is:

Is the AFMIII structure or not?



NB:   What's mysterious is this AFM structure that the space group is monoclinic and the lattice parameters are orthorhombic.
