Miller index 0 means that the plane is parallel to that axis (intersection at "$\frac{|{\bf a}_3|}{0}=\infty$"). A bar above a Miller index means intersection at a negative coordinate.
Miller index 0 means that the plane is parallel to that axis (intersection at "$\frac{|{\bf a}_3|}{0}\rightarrow\infty$"). A bar above a Miller index means intersection at a negative coordinate.
If a crystal is symmetric under $90^\circ$ rotations, then $(100)$, $(010)$ and $(001)$ are physically indistinguishable.
Therefore, we use the notation $\{100\}$ to indicate a whole family of these symmetry-related planes.
