  2. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    In crystallography, crystal structure is a description of ordered arrangement of atoms, ions, ... All but one of the crystalline forms involve tetrahedral ...

  3. Tetragonal crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragonal_crystal_system

    An example of the tetragonal crystals, wulfenite Two different views (top down and from the side) of the unit cell of tP30-CrFe (σ-phase Frank–Kasper structure) that show its different side lengths, making this structure a member of the tetragonal crystal system. In crystallography, the tetragonal crystal system is one of the 7 crystal systems.

  4. Interstitial site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_site

    If half of the tetrahedral sites of the parent HCP lattice are filled by ions of opposite charge, the structure formed is the wurtzite crystal structure. If all the octahedral sites of the anion HCP lattice are filled by cations, the structure formed is the nickel arsenide structure.

  5. Spinel group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinel_group

    Crystal structure of spinel. The space group for a spinel group mineral may be Fd 3 m (the same as for diamond), but in some cases (such as spinel itself, MgAl 2 O 4, beyond 452.6 K [10]) it is actually the tetrahedral F 4 3m.

  6. Crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_system

    The diamond crystal structure belongs to the face-centered cubic lattice, with a repeated two-atom pattern.. In crystallography, a crystal system is a set of point groups (a group of geometric symmetries with at least one fixed point).

  7. Geometry index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry_index

    When τ 4 is close to 0 the geometry is similar to square planar, while if τ 4 is close to 1 then the geometry is similar to tetrahedral. However, in contrast to the τ 5 parameter, this does not distinguish α and β angles, so structures of significantly different geometries can have similar τ 4 values.

  8. Tetrahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_molecular_geometry

    In a tetrahedral molecular geometry, a central atom is located at the center with four substituents that are located at the corners of a tetrahedron. The bond angles are arccos (− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ ) = 109.4712206...° ≈ 109.5° when all four substituents are the same, as in methane ( CH 4 ) [ 1 ] [ 2 ] as well as its heavier analogues .

  9. Coordination geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_geometry

    In a crystal structure the coordination geometry of an atom is the geometrical pattern of coordinating atoms where the definition of coordinating atoms depends on the bonding model used. [1] For example, in the rock salt ionic structure each sodium atom has six near neighbour chloride ions in an octahedral geometry and each chloride has ...
