Vertical mirrors of the diamond cubic structure
= Vertical mirrors of the diamond cubic structure
{title2=$x\pm y=n/2$}
With one atom at the origin and the second FCC sublattice displaced by $(1/4,1/4,1/4)$, the vertical mirrors normal to directions perpendicular to $[001]$ have traces $x-y=n/2$ or $x+y=n/2$ in fractional coordinates. Checking the atomic heights distinguishes a genuine mirror from a misleading planar projection.
