Unit Cell
Bravais Lattice in 3D

Each unit is equivalent: shape, volume, composition and same distribution of atoms

A unit cell is a parallelepiped formed by and (2-D case), or and (3-D case). A crystal is constructed by translating the unit cell along the directions of the lattice vectors.

-
Unit Cell and consequently, the entire lattice, is unique determined by the six lattice constants: a,b,c, α, βand γ.

Unit Cell in 2D
The smallest component of the crystal, which when stacked together with pure translational repetition reproduces the whole crystal.
