Fundamental Concept
Solid materials may be classified
according to the regularity with which
atoms or ions are arranged with
respect to one another.
A crystalline material is one in which
the atoms are situated in a repeating
or periodic array over large atomic
distances;
During solidification, the atoms will
position themselves in a repetitive
3D pattern, in which each atom is
bonded to its nearest-neighbor
atoms.
Chapter 3 - 4
Fundamental Concept
Absence of the long-range atomic order
referred to as noncrystalline or
amorphous materials.
Some of the properties of crystalline
solids depend on the crystal structure of
the material, the manner in which atoms,
ions, or molecules are spatially arranged.

Chapter 3 - 7
Fundamental Concept
Atoms (or ions) are thought of as being solid spheres (known
diameter). This is termed the atomic hard-sphere model in which
spheres representing nearest-neighbor atoms touch one another.
The term lattice is used in the context of crystal structures; in this
sense lattice means a three-dimensional array of points coinciding
with atom positions (or sphere centers).
Unit Cell is the smallest repeating unit in the lattice (geometrical
symmetry).
Most crustal structures are parallelepipeds or prisms (three sets
of parallel faces). Corners of the unit cells are taken to coincide

with the centers of the solid spheres.

The metallic ions (cations) are positively charged, they given up their valence
electrons to the nonmetallic ions ( anions-negatively charged).
The crystal structures may be thought of as being composed of electrically
charged ions instead of atoms (where bonding is predominantly
ionic).

Crystal Systems
Unit cell: smallest repetitive volume which
contains the complete lattice pattern of a crystal.
Unit cells for most crystal structures are
parallelepipeds or prisms having three sets of
parallel faces.
Crystal structures are divided into two groups
according to:
Unit cell configuration
Atomic arrangement

Crystallographic Planes
The orientation of planes for a crystal structure are represented in a
similar fashion.
The miller indices are used except for the hexagonal crystal system.
Chapter 3 - 67
Crystallographic Planes
If the plane passes through the selected origin,
either another parallel plane must be constructed
within the unit cell by an appropriate translation,
or a new origin must be established at the corner
of another unit cell.
Algorithm
1. Read off intercepts of plane with axes in
terms of a, b, c
2. Take reciprocals of intercepts
3. Reduce to smallest integer values
4. Enclose in parentheses, no
commas i.e., (hkl)

Single Crystal
For crystalline solid, when the periodic and repeated
arrangement of atoms is perfect or extends throughout the
entirety of the specimen without interruption, the result is a
single crystal.
All unit cells interlock in the same way and have the same
orientation.
Garnet
Chapter 3 - 77
Polycrystalline materials
Most crystalline solids are composed of a collection of many
small crystals or grains; such materials are termed
polycrystalline.
The crystallographic orientation varies from grain to grain. Also,
there exists some atomic mismatch within the region where two
grains meet; this area, called a grain boundary.

Chapter 3 - 79
Chapter 3 - 80
Anisotropy/ Isotropy
The physical properties of single crystals of some substances
depend on the crystallographic direction in which measurements
are taken.
The elastic modulus, the electrical conductivity, and the index of
refraction may have different values in the [100] and [111]
directions.
This directionality of properties is termed anisotropy.
The extent and magnitude of anisotropic effects in crystalline
materials are functions of the symmetry of the crystal structure.
Anisotropy increases with decreasing structural symmetry
(triclinic structures).
Substances in which measured properties are independent of
the direction of measurement are isotropic.
Chapter 3 - 81
Anisotropy/ Isotropy
For many polycrystalline materials, the crystallographic
orientations of the individual grains are totally random. Under
these circumstances, even though each grain may be
anisotropic, a specimen composed of the grain aggregate
behaves isotropically.
The magnitude of a measured property represents some
average of the directional values.
Chapter 3 - 82
Non-crystalline solids
Noncrystalline solids lack a systematic and regular arrangement of
atoms, also called amorphous.
Rapid cooling through the freezing temperature favors the formation
of a noncrystalline solid, because little time is allowed for the
ordering process.
Polymers may be completely noncrystalline and semicrystalline
consisting of varying degrees of crystallinity.

SUMMARY
Atoms may assemble into crystalline or amorphous structures.
Common metallic crystal structures are FCC, BCC, and HCP.
Coordination number and atomic packing factor are the same
for both FCC and HCP crystal structures.
We can predict the density of a material, provided we know the
atomic weight, atomic radius, and crystal geometry (e.g., FCC,
BCC, HCP).
Interatomic bonding in ceramics is ionic and/or covalent.
Ceramic crystal structures are based on:
-- maintaining charge neutrality
-- cation-anion radii ratios.
Crystallographic points, directions and planes are specified in
terms of indexing schemes. Crystallographic directions and
planes are related to atomic linear densities and planar densities.
Chapter 3 - 85
SUMMARY
Materials can be single crystals or polycrystalline.
Material properties generally vary with single crystal
orientation (i.e., they are anisotropic), but are generally
non-directional (i.e., they are isotropic) in polycrystals
with randomly oriented grains.
Some materials can have more than one crystal
structure. This is referred to as polymorphism (or
allotropy).
