In geometry, a rhombohedron (also called a rhombic hexahedron [1] [2] or, inaccurately, a rhomboid [a]) is a special case of a parallelepiped in which all six faces are congruent rhombi. [3] It can be used to define the rhombohedral lattice system , a honeycomb with rhombohedral cells.
The trigonal crystal system consists of the 5 point groups that have a single three-fold rotation axis, which includes space groups 143 to 167. These 5 point groups have 7 corresponding space groups (denoted by R) assigned to the rhombohedral lattice system and 18 corresponding space groups (denoted by P) assigned to the hexagonal lattice system.
In geometry, a trigonal trapezohedron is a polyhedron with six congruent quadrilateral faces, which may be scalene or rhomboid. [1] [2] The variety with rhombus-shaped faces faces is a rhombohedron. [3] [4] An alternative name for the same shape is the trigonal deltohedron. [5]
In monoclinic, trigonal, tetragonal, and hexagonal systems there is one unique axis (sometimes called the principal axis) which has higher rotational symmetry than the other two axes. The basal plane is the plane perpendicular to the principal axis in these crystal systems.
Rhombohedral: R 3 m (No. 166) 105 (rh.) 315 (hex.) Partly due to its complexity, whether this structure is the ground state of Boron has not been fully settled. α-As: A7: Rhombohedral: R 3 m (No. 166) 2 (rh.) 6 (hex.) in grey metallic form, each As atom has 3 neighbours in the same sheet at 251.7pm; 3 in adjacent sheet at 312.0 pm.

With hexagonal and rhombohedral lattice systems, it is possible to use the Bravais–Miller system, which uses four indices (h k i ℓ) that obey the constraint h + k + i = 0. Here h , k and ℓ are identical to the corresponding Miller indices, and i is a redundant index.
