  3. Ref. Dissertation Enzo Ungersbock, “Advanced modeling of strained CMOS technology” Only shows one of the four inside atoms c = = a = b Diamond can be considered as two inter-penetrating fcc lattices. Same basis vectors as fcc: a = a/2 x + 0 y + a/2 z b = a/2 x + a/2 y + 0 z c = 0 x + a/2 y + a/2 z Same primitive cell volume: a3/4 Make it diamond by putting a two-atom basis at each vertex of the fcc primitive cell. Pair a 2nd atom at (¼ , ¼ , ¼) x a with every fcc atom in the primitive cell VM Ayres, ECE875, S14

  11. MgO crystallizes in the Rock salt structure Rock salt can be also considered as two inter-penetrating fcc lattices. Same basis vectors as fcc: a = a/2 x + 0 y + a/2 z b = a/2 x + a/2 y + 0 z c = 0 x + a/2 y + a/2 z Same primitive cell volume: a3/4 Make it Rock salt by putting a two-atom basis at each vertex of the fcc primitive cell.

  18. C-C ^ HW01: Find Miller indices in a possibly non-standard direction Miller indices: describe a general direction k. Miller indices describe a plane (hkl).

  22. C-C ^ HW01: Si: cubic: orthogonal Find Miller indices in a possibly non-standard direction Hint: check intercept values versus the value of the lattice constant a for Si (Sze Appendix G) VM Ayres, ECE875, S14

  23. HW01: Find Miller indices in a possibly non-standard direction Miller indices: describe a general direction k. Miller indices describe a plane (hkl). The normal to that plane describes the direction. In an orthogonal system: direction = hx + ky + lz In a non-orthogonal system: direction = ha* + kb* + lc* VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
