  27. Problem Set • Write down a set of primitive vectors for the following Bravais lattices : (a) simple cube, (b) body-centred cube, (c) face-centred cube, (d) simple tetragonal, (e) body-centred tetragonal. • Write down the reciprocal lattice vectors corresponding to the primitive direct lattice vectors in problem 1. • Prove with a simple geometric construction, that rotation symmetry operations of order 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 only are compatible with a periodic lattice. • Determine the best packing efficiency among simple cube, bcc and fcc lattices. • In a system of close packed spheres, determine the ratio of the radius of tetrahedral interstitial sites to the radius of the octahedral interstitial sites. • List the Bravais lattices arising from the cubic, tetragonal and orthorhombic systems. Discuss their genesis and account for why cubic system has three, tetragonal system has two and orthorhombic system has four Bravais lattices. • Points on a cubic close packed structure form a Bravais lattice, but the points on a hexagonal close packed structure do not. Explain. • Write down the direct and reciprocal lattice vectors for diamond considering it as an fcc lattice with two atoms in the basis. Write down also the coordinates of the two atoms in the basis. Determine the systematic absences in its x-ray diffraction profile. • Discuss the spinel and inverse spinel structures. Give some examples of materials possessing such structures. • Draw schematic diagrams of the following structures : (a) rock salt, (b) cesium chloride, (c) fluorite, (d) rutile. • What is the difference in the structures of -graphite and -graphite ? • Contrast the zinc blende and wurtzite structures - give similarities and differences. • Diamond has a zinc blende structure - explain. • Draw schematic diagrams to illustrate the similarity between NiAs and CdI2 structures. • Illustrate with a diagram the perovskite structure for the general oxide formula ABO3. What is the oxygen coordination for A and B ? Indicate this on the diagram. • (Text books of Cotton & Wilkinson, Greenwood & Earnshaw, Wells etc. give details of various structural motifs).
