Atomic Bonding
Primary bonding: Metallic bond, Covalent bond, Ionic bond.
Secondary bonding: Van der Waals interactions (London forces, Debye interaction, Keesom interaction)
Intermetallic compound is a compound such as Al3V formed by two or more metallic atoms
Metallic Bonding
The metallic bond forms when atoms give up their valence electron, then forms an electron sea.
The positively charged atom cores are bonded by mutual attraction to the negatively charged electrons.
When voltage is applied, the sea of electrons can move freely to produce a current.

Covalent Bonding
Covalent bonding
requires that
electrons be shared
between atoms in
such a way that
each atom has its
outer sp orbital filled.
In silicon, with a
valence of four, four
covalent bonds must
be formed.
Ionic Bonding
An ionic bond is the result of electron transfer from one atom to another.
When sodium donates its valence electron to chlorine, each becomes an ion; attraction occurs, and the ionic bond is formed.
It is important to knot that ionic bonds are nondirectional. A positively charged Na+ will attract any adjacent Cl- equally in all directions!

When voltage is
applied to an ionic
material, entire ions
must move to cause
a current to flow.
Ion movement is
slow and the
electrical
conductivity is poor.
Atomic Arrangement
Levels of atomic arrangements in materials:
(a) Inert monoatomic gases have no regular ordering of atoms
(b, c) Some materials, including water vapor, nitrogen gas, amorphous silicon and silicate glass have short-range order.
(d) Metals, alloys, many ceramics and some polymers have regular ordering of atoms/ions that extends through the material. (c) 2003 Brooks/Cole Publishing / Thomson

Lattice, Unit Cells, and Crystal
Structures
Lattice - A collection of points that divide space into smaller equally sized segments.
Unit cell – The simplest repeating unit of any structure that can be stacked to fill space. All atoms must be the same in every unit cell.
Atomic radius - The apparent radius of an atom, typically calculated from the dimensions of the unit cell, using close-packed directions (depends upon coordination number).
Packing factor - The fraction of space in a unit cell occupied by atoms.

Remember Miller Indices?
For directions: Determine coordinates
for “head” and “tail” of the direction
“head”-”tail”
Clear fraction/reduce results to lowest integers.
Enclose numbers in [] and a bar over negative integers.
For planes: Identify points at which
the plane intercepts the x, y, z axis.
Take reciprocals of these intercepts.
Clear fractions and do NOT reduce to the lowest integers.
Enclose the numbers in parentheses () and a bar over negative integers.
Special note for directions…
For Miller Indices of directions: Since directions are vectors, a direction and its
negative are not identical! [100] ≠ [100] Same line, opposite directions!
A direction and its multiple are identical! [100] is the same direction as [200] ( need to reduce!)
[111] is the same direction as [222], [333]!
Certain groups of directions are equivalent; they have their particular indices because of the way we construct the coordinates. Family of directions: <111>=[111], [111],[111],[111],…
Special note for planes…
For Miller Indices of planes: Planes and their negatives are identical (not the
case for directions!) E.g. (020) = (020)
Planes and their multiples are not identical (Again, different from directions!) We can show this by defining planar densities and planar packing fractions. E.g. (010) ≠ (020) See example!
Each unit cell, equivalent planes have their particular indices because of the orientation of the coordinates. Family of planes: {110} = (110),(110),(110),(101), (101),…
In cubic systems, a direction that has the same indices as a plane is perpendicular to that plane.
Calculate the planar density and planar packing fraction for the (010) and (020) planes in simple cubic polonium, which has a lattice parameter of 0.334 nm.

However, no atoms are centered on the (020) planes. Therefore, the planar density and the planar packing fraction are both zero. The (010) and (020) planes are not equivalent!

Determine the planar density and packing fraction for FCC nickel in the (100), (110), and (111) planes. Which, if any, of these planes is close-packed?
Remember when
visualizing the plane, only
count the atoms that the
plane passes through the
center of the atom. If the
plane does NOT pass
through the center of that
atom, we do not count it!

X-Ray Diffraction (XRD)
Max von Laue (1879-1960) won the Nobel Prize in 1912 for his discovery related to the diffraction of x-rays by a crystal.
William Henry Bragg (1862-1942) and his son William Lawrence Bragg (1890-1971) won the 1915 Nobel Prize for their contributions to XRD.
Diffraction – The constructive interference, or reinforcement, of a beam of x-rays or electrons interacting with a material. The diffracted beam provides useful information concerning the structure of the material.
Used widely as an equipment to determine crystal structures of various materials.

The interplanar spacing in cubic materials is given by the general equation:

The results of a x-ray diffraction experiment using x-
rays with λ = 0.7107 Å (a radiation obtained from
molybdenum (Mo) target) show that diffracted peaks occur at the following 2θ angles:
Example: Examining X-ray Diffraction
Determine the crystal structure, the indices of the plane producing each peak, and the lattice parameter of the material.
EXAMPLE SOLUTION
We can first determine the sin2 θ value for each peak,
then divide through by the lowest denominator, 0.0308.
EXAMPLE SOLUTION (Continued)
We could then use 2θ values for any of the peaks to calculate the interplanar spacing and thus the lattice parameter. Picking peak 8:
