In general, the n-th Brillouin zone consists of the set of points that can be reached from the origin by crossing exactly n − 1 distinct Bragg planes. A related concept is that of the irreducible Brillouin zone , which is the first Brillouin zone reduced by all of the symmetries in the point group of the lattice (point group of the crystal).
