Solid State Physics
Week 1
Chapter 1:
Introduction
Why Choosing Solid?
-
- Consists of atom or molecules executing thermal motion about an equilibrium position fixed at a point in space
- Take the form of Crystalline, Polycrystalline or Amorphous material
- Have Strong Bonds between molecules and atoms
- Required More Energy to break the bond
-
Lattice and Basis
-
Crystal Period - Lattice
A repeated arrangement of atoms, ions or molecules in metal or other crystalline solid
-
-
-
Chapter 2: Unit Cell
Unit Cell 单元格
-
Three types
Primitive Unit Cell 原始
- Only one lattice point // basis
- Smallest area in 2D
- Smallest volume in 3D
- Could be constructed using primitive lattice vector
可以使用原始晶格向量构造
- All cells have same volume independence of its shape
晶体有相同的体积 但和形状无关
- Made by Primitive Translation Vector
no cell of smaller volume that can be used for building block for crystal structure
- Will fill up the space by repetition of suitable crystal translation vector
-
-
Wigner-Seitz Unit Cell
- 1) Choose one lattice point located in the center of the cell (every point in the cell closer to the center and also to the other lattice points)
- 2) Primitive unit cell with full symmetry
- 3) Draw a line from that points to its nearest neighbour lattice and divide it into 1/2
- 4) Draw on each line a plane perpendicular to the each line and divide it into 1/2
- 5) The smallest geometrical shape bounded by these planes and the lattice point in center is Wigner-Seitz Cell
-
Volume
- Can be expressed in basis lattice vector
- Density of the crystal (p=M/V) is uniform
Because all unit cell contains same number of atom distribution
Crystal Lattice
Bravais Lattice
- All atoms are of the same kind
- All lattice points are equivalent
-located at the unit cell corner
-some will at faces // center of unit cell
Geometry
2D
has 5 shape
- Oblique倾斜
- Rectangular(Rhombic),
- Centered Rectangular(Orthorhombic)
- Hexagonal and
- Square
3D
has 14 shape
- Triclinic三斜
- Monoclinic单斜
- Orthorhombic 斜面
- Tetragonal 四边形
- Rhombohedral 菱面斜
- Hexagonal 六边体
- Cubic 正方体
Non-Bravais Lattice
- Atoms can be difference kind
- Some lattice points are not equivalent
- Combine with two or more Bravais Lattice
Crystal Shape
-
Example
Square, Rectangular, Oblique, Hexagon

Recap
- Crystal // Basic of Crystallography
A solid in which atoms are arranged in some regular repetition pattern in all direction
- Structures
The framework 骨架 of its body
- Unit Cell
The smallest volume element
-Dimension: a, b, c (Three axes)
-Angle: α, β, γ
Chapter 4:
Position, Direction and Plane in Crystal
Miller Indices
-
Plane
-
-
Procedure
- If plane does not intercept an axis = 0 or ∞
- If the reciprocal of the intercept is fraction
multiply by the lowest common denominator
- If passing through origin, method
1) consider an equivalent plane in an adjacent unit cell
2) Select a different origin for the same plane
