Lattice and its properties
• Lattice: An imaginary 3-D framework, that
can be referenced to a network of regularly
spaced points each of which represents the
position of a motif.
Lattice and its properties
• line lattice
• plane lattice
• space lattice
– unit cell
– primitive and non-primitive cells
Lattice and its properties
• I can generate a lattice
line from a lattice
point by translating
my lattice point with a
vector (a)

Lattice and its properties
• Plane lattice: by
introducing another
vector b, that is not in
the same direction as
a, I can produce a
plane lattice
vector a
vector b
Lattice and its properties
• Space lattice, by
introducing another
vector c, which is not
in the same plane as a
and b, I can generate a
space lattice

Unit Cell
• The smallest representative unit of structure
which when repeated in 3-D gives the
whole crystal.
Structure:
• Nearly all minerals are crystalline solids composed of
atoms or ions held in an orderly, 3-D array by inter atomic
forces. Such array of atoms are called crystal structure and
are characterized by periodic duplication of any grouping
of atoms along any line through the structure.
• In other wards the ordered arrangement of atoms or group
of atoms within crystalline substance.
Unit Cell
• How to choose a Unit cell from plane
lattice?
Choice of a Unit Cell
Choice of a Unit Cell
• Look at this pattern, it
is produced by simple
translations.
• There are several
possible choices for
the Unit Cell.

C
Choice of a Unit Cell
• A lattice point occurs
where the corners of
four cells meet, and
therefore, 1/4 point per
corner lies in a give
cell (1/4 * 4=1)
C
Choice of a Unit Cell
• Unit Cells that include
one lattice point, such
as A, and B are called
primitive Cells.
• Unit Cell C is Nonprimitive.

Choice of a Unit Cell
• Many different cells
containing a single
lattice point may be
chosen.

Choice of a Unit Cell
• How do you chose the
Unit Cell?
C
– To keep the
translations short
– To provide as highly
specialized a lattice
geometry as possible
– To have the cell shape
comparable with the
shape of the crystal
Symmetry of a Lattice:
• Lets see what symmetry exist in a lattice for
a moment and we will come back to Unit
Cell
Elements of symmetry operations:
• Symmetry operations: Movements
performed on an object such that when
completed, the object looks the same as
when you started.
– These include:

number of times during 360 degrees

Translation Symmetry
• A translation is simply moving an object in
some direction (a, b, c) without a rotation.
Hence a point (x, y, z) is translated to the
point (x+a, y+b, z+c).
Translation Symmetry
• Crystalline materials have
structures with translational
symmetry. The unit cell of the
crystal contains the smallest
atomic group that is needed to
define the structure under
repetition.
