  • H2S (A2B_oP12_26_abc_ab, H2S) and $\beta$–SeO2 (A2B_oP12_26_abc_ab, SeO2) have the same AFLOW prototype label. They are generated by the same symmetry operations with different sets of parameters (––params) specified in their corresponding CIF files.

Simple Orthorhombic primitive vectors:

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