Crystal Structure of Solids Types of Solids amorphous polycrystalline single crystal
Crystal Structure of Solids Basic crystal structures simple cubic body-centered face-centered
Crystal Structure of Solids Miller Indices Method Formed by taking the reciprocal of the intercept in the respective dimension Example 1 (1/3,1/2,1/1) or (236)
Crystal Structure of Solids Miller Indices Example 2 100 110 111
Crystal Structure of Solids Surface Density of Atoms in a Plane Method Divide number of atoms (making sure to divide by total planes contributed to) by area of plane Example Density = 2/(a1a121/2) Note: a1 is known as the lattice constant
Crystal Structure of Solids Diamond Structure of Silicon Tetrahedral structure
