What are Miller indices?
|
They reciprocals of intercepts a plane makes with the x, y and z axes. They are denoted in the (h k l) format, their families in the {h k l} format.
|
|
2 zeros
|
What are in the Miller indices of a plane of cube face or one parallel to a cube?
|
|
What is a diagonal plane?
|
This plane has one Miller indice of zero.
|
|
They do not contain any atoms.
|
Why are higher order planes like (5 6 0) not interesting?
|
|
perpindicular
|
A plane and direction with the same indices are _______.
|
|
yes
|
Can a direction be reduced?
|
|
no
|
Can a plane be reduced?
|
|
What is planar density?
|
This number is the atoms centered on a plane divided by the area of that plan.
|
|
What is linear denity?
|
This number is the atoms centered on a direction vector divided by the length of that vector.

What is the closest packed plane in an FCC structure?
|
|
(0001)
|
What is the closest packed plane in an HCP structure?
|
|
What is a crystal structure?
|
This structure can be constructed by stacking closely packed planes.
|
|
What ABCABC?
|
An FCC structure has this stacking sequence.
|
|
What ABAB or ACAC?
|
An HCP structure has this stacking sequence.
|
|
What is X-Ray diffraction?
|
This method of determining crystal structures and inter-planar spacing is based on the constructive interference of x-rays scattered by atoms in a crystal.
|
|
What is Bragg's Law?
|
This condition is necessary for diffraction. n*lambda=2dsin(theta)
|
|
What is an amorphous material?
|
This material has no peaks in data from an x-ray diffractometer. (glass)
