Outline • Basic Structures • Cubic: FCC/BCC • HCP • Miller Indices • From 3D to 4D: Miller indices for hexagonal crystals • From 3D to 2D: Stereographic Projection • Zone axis
BCC/FCC /HCP BASIC STRUCTURES
Basic Structures: BCC • Coordination number = 8 • Number of atoms in unit cell = 2 • α-Fe(room temperature) , δ-Fe(high T), β-Ti(high T), Zr (high T)
Basic Structures: FCC • Coordination number = 12 • Number of atoms in unit cell = 4 • Closest packing • ABCABC packing • γ-Fe, Cu, Ag, Au, Al, Ni, Pb, Pt
Basic Structures: HCP • Coordination number = 12 • Number of atoms in unit cell = 2(*) • Closest packing • ABAB packing • Mg, Zn, α-Ti, Be, Cd, Zr (low T)
Notations/Hexagonal Systems/Stereographic Projection MILLER INDICES
Miller Indices-Notations • Directions • Specific Direction: [u1 u2 u3] • Family of Directions: <u1 u2 u3> • Planes • Reciprocal of the intercepts • Specific Plane: (u1 u2 u3) • Family of Planes: {u1 u2 u3}
From 3D to 4D-Miller indices for HCP structures • Constraints: • [u1u2u3v]→u1a1+u2a2+u3a3+vc • u1+u2+u3 = 0 • Redundant coordinate system which is not orthogonal • But we can still perform inner product.
Zone axis In this TEM diffraction, the structure is FCC and the zone axis is [112]. The (11-1) and (2-20) plane have the same zone axis [112]. _ (111) _ (220)
