A simple cubic crystal has only one lattice constant, the distance between atoms, but in general lattices in three dimensions have six lattice constants: the lengths a, b, and c of the three cell edges meeting at a vertex, and the angles α, β, and γ between those edges. The crystal lattice parameters a, b, and c have the
Electron powder pattern (red) of an Al film with an fcc spiral overlay (green) and a line of intersections (blue) that determines lattice parameter. [ 1 ] X-ray powder diffraction of Y 2 Cu 2 O 5 and Rietveld refinement with two phases, showing 1% of yttrium oxide impurity (red tickers).
A lattice in which the conventional basis is primitive is called a primitive lattice, while a lattice with a non-primitive conventional basis is called a centered lattice. The choice of an origin and a basis implies the choice of a unit cell which can further be used to describe a crystal pattern.
Vegard's law assumes that both components A and B in their pure form (i.e., before mixing) have the same crystal structure. Here, a A (1-x) B x is the lattice parameter of the solid solution, a A and a B are the lattice parameters of the pure constituents, and x is the molar fraction of B in the solid solution.
where a is the unit cell edge length of the crystal, ‖ ‖ is the magnitude of the Burgers vector, and h, k, and l are the components of the Burgers vector, = ; the coefficient is because in BCC and FCC lattices, the shortest lattice vectors could be as expressed .
Interstitial Atomic diffusion across a 4-coordinated lattice. Note that the atoms often block each other from moving to adjacent sites. As per Fick’s law, the net flux (or movement of atoms) is always in the opposite direction of the concentration gradient. H + ions diffusing in an O 2-lattice of superionic ice
However, in real materials there are deviations from this in some metals where the unit cell is distorted in one direction but the structure still retains the hcp space group—remarkable all the elements have a ratio of lattice parameters c/a < 1.633 (best are Mg and Co and worst Be with c/a ~ 1.568).
where is the volume fraction of the fibers in the composite (and is the volume fraction of the matrix).. If it is assumed that the composite material behaves as a linear-elastic material, i.e., abiding Hooke's law = for some elastic modulus of the composite and some strain of the composite , then equations 1 and 2 can be combined to give
