Why quantify:The physical structure is the environment through which current
travels in a deviceThe current interacts seriously with its environment

Repeat unit = “Unit Cell”.Stack many Unit Cells to make a crystalExample from book: bcc (chromium, cobalt)
Point: to stack Unit Cells sideways or up to make a crystal, you need to have the atoms in the box.
