Miller Indices (hkl)

Miller indices are a notation system in crystallography for planes in crystal lattices. They are defined as the reciprocals of the fractional intercepts that the plane makes with the crystallographic axes.

h = 1/x, k = 1/y, l = 1/z

Enter intercepts on x, y, z axes (use 0 for parallel/infinity):
