Ionic Bond – electron transfer and electrostatic attraction
Non directional
![Page 17: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Covalent Bond: electron sharing for stable outer shellsHighly directional
![Page 18: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Metallic bond: electron sharing between charged ion coresNon directional
![Page 19: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The bond type influences the mechanical properties
Both ionic and metallic bonds form close packed structures. Ions, though, have to maintain charge neutrality, so any deformation in ionic solids must be large enough to move the atoms back into registry. Metals do not have this restriction. Hence, ionic solids are brittle, while metals are ductile.
![Page 20: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Other, weaker bonds
Hydrogen bond: hydrogen acts as infinitesimal cation attracting two anions
van der Waals bond: weak attraction between molecular dipoles
![Page 21: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

The structure of an ionic compound depends upon the ratio of the cation to the anion
![Page 23: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The crystal lattice
A point lattice is made up of regular, repeating points in space. An atom or group of atoms are tied to each lattice point
![Page 24: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
![Page 25: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
14 different point lattices, called Bravais lattices, make up the crystal system. The lengths of the sides, a, b, and c, and the angles between them can vary for a particular unit cell.
![Page 26: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Three simple lattices that describe metals are Face Centered Cubic (FCC) Body Centered Cubic (BCC) and Hexagonal Close Packed (HCP)
![Page 27: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Whether a close packed crystal is FCC or HCP depends upon the stacking sequence of close packed planes
![Page 28: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Diamond, BeO and GaAs are examples of FCC structures with two atoms per lattice point
![Page 29: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Polymers are made up of repeating units “mers”, that make up a long chain. The chain may be cross-linked, or held together with van der Waals or
hydrogen bonds
![Page 30: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Structures may be crystalline, having repeating structure, or amorphous, having local structure but no long-range structure
![Page 31: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Directions in a crystal lattice – Miller Indices
Vectors described by multiples of lattice constants: ua+vb+wc
e.g., the vector in the illustration crosses the edges of the unit cell at u=1, v=1, c=1/2
Arrange these in brackets, and clear the fractions:
[1 1 ½] = [2 2 1]
![Page 32: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Negative directions have a bar over the number
e.g., _
11
Families of crystallographically equivalent directions, e.g., [100], [010], [001] are written as <uvw>, or, in this example, <100>
![Page 33: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

a1, a2 and a3 axes are 120o apart, z axis is perpendicular to the a1,a2,a3 basal plane
Directions in this crystal system are derived by converting the [u′v′w′] directions to [uvtw] using the following convention:
n is a factor that reduces [uvtw] to smallest integers. For example, if
u′=1, v′=-1, w′=0, then
[uvtw]= ]0011[_

Crystallographic Planes
To find crystallographic planes are represented by (hkl). Identify where the plane intersects the a, b and c axes; in this case, a=1/2, b=1, c=∞
Write the reciprocals 1/a, 1/b, 1/c:

If the plane interesects the origin, simply translate the origin to an equivalent location.
Families of equivalent planes are denoted by braces:
e.g., the (100), (010), (001), etc. planes are denoted {100}
![Page 36: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Planes in HCP crystals are numbered in the same way
e.g., the plane on the left intersects a1=1, a2=0, a3=-1, and z=1, thus the plane is )1110(

• tend to be densely packed.
• have several reasons for dense packing:-Typically, only one element is present, so all atomic radii are the same.-Metallic bonding is not directional.-Nearest neighbor distances tend to be small in order to lower bond energy.
• have the simplest crystal structures.
We will look at three such structures...

The Reciprocal Lattice and Waves in Crystals
We use the reciprocal lattice to calculate wave behavior in crystals because sound, optical and electrical properties pass through the crystal as waves
Because crystals are periodic, properties throughout the crystal will be the same as those surrounding any lattice point, contained in a volume known as a “Brillion Zone”
![Page 42: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
X-ray diffraction and crystal structure
• X-rays have a wave length, Å.• This is on the size scale of the structures
we wish to study X-rays interfere constructively when the interplanar spacing is related to an integer number of wavelengths in accordance with Bragg’s law:
sin2dn
![Page 43: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Because of the numbering system, atomic planes are perpendicular to their corresponding vector,
e.g., (111) is perpendicular to [111]
The interplanar spacing for a cubic crystal is:
222 lkh
adhkl
Because the intensity of the diffracted beam varies depending upon the diffraction angle, knowing the angle and using Bragg’s law we can obtain the crystal structure and lattice parameter
![Page 44: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The Reciprocal Lattice
To analyze the atomic structure and resulting properties of crystals, we introduce the concept of the “reciprocal lattice”
A reciprocal lattice vector is defined as
G = 1b1 + 2b2 + 3b3
Where 1, 2, 3 are integers and b1, b2 and b3 are primitive vectors in the reciprocal lattice
![Page 45: MSE 630 Introduction to Solid State Physics Topics: Structure of Crystals](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568136b8550346895d9e5a35/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Why do we need reciprocal space?
Because waves or vibrations can be made up of a series of waves of other frequencies, i.e., expressed as a Fourier Series:

)exp()(
