6 Symmetry Operations Symmetry operation is a transformation, which leaves an object the same. Point-Symmetry operations: Identity 1; (E) Rotational Axes n; (n-fold rotation axis) Mirror Plane m; (s, s v, s h ) Inversion -1; (i) Rotoinversion Axes n; (S n ) Point symmetry means that a given point remains fixed (untransformed) 6

37 What is a Group? Group (G) is a set of objects together with an operation (rule) how to combine two elements from the set to get a new element. The elements of a group fulfill the following properties: # closure the operation on the elements of the group always produces another element of the group (closed set); A.B = C, C is also element of G # the group contains an identity element E, which leaves every element of the group unchanged, when it is conbined with the identity. A.E = E.A = A # for every element A of the group there is an inverse elemen A -1, so that A.A -1 = E In point, plane and space groups the elements are the symmetry transformations! 37

38 Space Groups Combination of symmetry elements located at diffrent points of the unit cell There are only 230 different space group symmetries (space groups) in 3D (There are only 17 plane groups in 2D) 38
