Simple Tetragonal primitive vectors:

\[ \begin{array}{ccc} \mathbf{a}_1 & = & a \, \mathbf{\hat{x}} \\ \mathbf{a}_2 & = & a \, \mathbf{\hat{y}} \\ \mathbf{a}_3 & = & c \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} \\ \end{array} \]

Basis vectors:

\[ \begin{array}{ccccccc} & & \mbox{Lattice Coordinates} & & \mbox{Cartesian Coordinates} &\mbox{Wyckoff Position} & \mbox{Atom Type} \\ \mathbf{B}_{1} & = & 0 \, \mathbf{a}_{1} + 0 \, \mathbf{a}_{2} + 0 \, \mathbf{a}_{3} & = & 0 \, \mathbf{\hat{x}} + 0 \, \mathbf{\hat{y}} + 0 \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} & \left(1a\right) & \mbox{Rh I} \\ \mathbf{B}_{2} & = & \frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{2} + z_{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{3} & = & \frac{1}{2}a \, \mathbf{\hat{y}} + z_{2}c \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} & \left(2g\right) & \mbox{P} \\ \mathbf{B}_{3} & = & \frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{1}-z_{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{3} & = & \frac{1}{2}a \, \mathbf{\hat{x}}-z_{2}c \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} & \left(2g\right) & \mbox{P} \\ \mathbf{B}_{4} & = & \frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{2} + z_{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{3} & = & \frac{1}{2}a \, \mathbf{\hat{y}} + z_{3}c \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} & \left(2g\right) & \mbox{Rh II} \\ \mathbf{B}_{5} & = & \frac{1}{2} \, \mathbf{a}_{1}-z_{3} \, \mathbf{a}_{3} & = & \frac{1}{2}a \, \mathbf{\hat{x}}-z_{3}c \, \mathbf{\hat{z}} & \left(2g\right) & \mbox{Rh II} \\ \end{array} \]
