Wood’s just told us.Ron: Fred and George are on the team, too. Beaters.Fred/George: Our job is to make sure you don’t getbloodied up too bad.

Atoms (molecules) pack together in aregular pattern to form a crystal.

There are two aspects to this pattern:

PeriodicitySymmetry

First, consider the periodicity…

8

To describe the periodicity, wesuperimpose (mentally) on the

crystal structure a lattice.A lattice is a regular array of

geometrical points, each of whichhas the same environment (they

are all equivalent).

9

A Primitive Cubic Lattice (CsCl)

10

A unit cell of a lattice (or crystal) isa volume which can describe the

lattice using only translations. In 3dimensions (for crystallographers),

this volume is a parallelepiped.Such a volume can be defined by six

numbers – the lengths of the threesides, and the angles between them –

or three basis vectors.

How do I pick the unit cell?

• Axis system (basis set) is right-handed• Symmetry defines natural directions and

boundaries• Angles close to 90°• Standard settings of space groups• To make structural similarities clearer

19

The Reduced Cell

• 3 shortest non-coplanar translations• Main Conditions (shortest vectors)• Special Conditions (unique)

• May not exhibit the true symmetry

22

Main Conditions:a·a ≤ b·b ≤ c·c |b·c| ≤ ½ b·b|a·c| ≤ ½ a·a |a·b| ≤ a·a( |b·c| + |a·c| + |a·b| ) ≤ ½ ( a·a + b·b )

Special Conditions:if a·a = b·b then |b·c| ≤ |a·c|if b·b = c·c then |a·c| ≤ |a·b|if |b·c| = ½ b·b then a·b = 0if |a·c| = ½ a·a then a·b = 0if |a·b| = ½ a·a then a·c = 0

if ( |b·c| + |a·c| + |a·b| ) = ½ ( a·a + b·b ) then a·a ≤ 2 |a·c| + |a·b|

There are 44 reduced forms. Therelationships among the six termsdetermine the Bravais lattice of

the crystal.

Indexing programs can get “caught” ina reduced cell, and miss the (higher)true symmetry. It’s always worth a

manual check of your cell.

34

The metric symmetry can be higherthan the crystallographic symmetry!

(A monoclinic cell can have β = 90°)

Definitions[hkl] indices of a lattice direction<hkl> indices of a set of symmetry-

equivalent lattice directions(hkl) indices of a single crystal face{hkl} indices of a set of all symmetry-

equivalent crystal faceshkl indices of a Bragg reflection

37

Now consider the symmetry…

38

Point Symmetry Elements

• A point symmetry operation does not alter atleast one point upon which it operates– Rotation axes– Mirror planes– Rotation-inversion axes (rotation-reflection)– Center

Screw axes and glide planes are notpoint symmetry elements!

39

Symmetry Operations• A proper symmetry operation does not invert the

handedness of a chiral object– Rotation– Screw axis– Translation

• An improper symmetry operation inverts thehandedness of a chiral object– Reflection– Inversion– Glide plane– Rotation-inversion

40

Not all combinations of symmetryelements are possible. In addition,

some point symmetry elements are notpossible if there is to be translationalsymmetry as well. There are only 32

crystallographic point groupsconsistent with periodicity in three

dimensions.
