crystal structure
Are you not having fun at learning crystal structure? here I have explained in a easy and in a simple manner to learn crystal structure and basic lattice types. CRYSTAL STRUCTURE: crystal are made up of building blocks i.e., it is made of atoms or a group of atoms. To understanding its structure we need to learn the concept lattice Basis LATTICE it is a periodic arrangement of imaginary points in a space . lattice itself a mathematical abstraction . BASIS is a single atom or a group of atom that is attached to a points in a space. most important property of lattice is the ability to the define a three dimensional transnational vectors a 1 , a 2 , a 3 such arrangement of atoms in the crystal looks same when viewed from the point T when viewed from every other point T' translated by an integral multiple of a's T'= T+ u 1 a 2 + u 2 a 2 + u 3 a 3 here u 1 , u 2 , u 3 are arbitrary vectors ...
