Answer

$(1,1,-2,0)or(1,1,\bar2,0)$ and $(0,0,0,1)$

Work Step by Step

To convert the [110] and [001] directions into the four-index Miller–Bravais scheme for hexagonal unit cells. If $u=1$, $v=1$ and $w=0$ then $u'=\frac{1}{3}(2u-v)$ $v'=\frac{1}{3}(2v-u)$ $t'=-(u'+v')$ $w'=w$ So the required term would be $u'=\frac{1}{3}(2-1)=\frac{1}{3}$ $v'=\frac{1}{3}(2-1)=\frac{1}{3}$ $t'=-(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3})=-\frac{2}{3}$ $w'=0$ So the term of the indices in hexagonal unit cell would be $(\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3},-\frac{2}{3},0)$ On dividing the term with 3 The required term of the indices is $(1,1,-2,0)$ Now the term [001] directions into the four-index Miller–Bravais scheme for hexagonal unit cells. Let given that the term $u=0$, $v=0$ and $w=1$ then $u'=\frac{1}{3}(2u-v)$ $v'=\frac{1}{3}(2v-u)$ $t'=-(u'+v')$ $w'=w$ So the required term is $u'=\frac{1}{3}(0-0)=0$ $v'=\frac{1}{3}(0-0)=0$ $t'=-(0+0)=0$ $w'=1$ So the term of the indices in hexagonal unit cell is $(0,0,0,1)$ The required term of the indices is $(0,0,0,1)$
