MIND MAP 1
UNIT CELL
-
What is unit cell?
- atoms form a repeating structure
- smallest, repeating unit of a lattice that retains symmetry
- unit cells build on each other to form a lattice
-
-
-
Crystal Lattice
Bravais Lattice
(BL)
- All atoms are of the same kind
- All lattice points are equivalent
-
Bravais Lattice in 2D
- Oblique
- Rectangular
- Centered Rectangular
- Hexagonal
- Square
-
-
-
LATTICE SYSTEM
Simple Cubic (SC)
-
- Rare due to low packing density
- Close-packed are cube edges
- Coordination # = 6
- ex: Po (Polonium)
-
-

-
PLANE DIRECTION
Crystallographic Planes
Miller Indices
- Determine the intercept of the face
- Take the reciprocals
- Clear fractions
- Reduce to lowest terms
Direction
Miller Indices
- Draw vector
- Determine length of vector projection
- Remove fraction
- Enclose in square bracket
-
CRYSTAL STRUCTURE
MATTER
GAS
Atoms or molecules do not bond in range of pressure, temperature and volume
-
-
SOLID
Crystal
-
ex: metals, alloys, semiconductors and some ceramics
Consist of atoms/molecules execute themal motion about an equilibrium position fixed at a point in space
-
Take the form of crystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphus materials
Polycrystal
-
ex: metals, alloys, semiconductors
-
-
CRYSTALLOGRAPHY
-
Lattice
regular repeated arrangement of atoms, ions, or
molecules in a metal or other crystalline solid
Basis
consists of an atom, a group of atoms or a molecule
-
SYMMETRY OPERATION
Point Operation
-
Identity, E
- no change in the object
- needed for mathematical completeness
- every molecule has this operation
Reflection/mirror
Reflection on vertical plane, σs
Plane of reflection is in diagonal, σp
Reflection on a horizontal plane, σm
-
Inversion
-
A center of symmetry: A point at the center of the molecule.
(x,y,z) --> (-x,-y,-z)
