SOLIDS • Solids have “resistance” to changes in both shape and volume • Solids can be Crystalline or Amorphous • Crystals are solids that consist of a periodic array of atoms, ions, or molecules • If this periodicity is preserved over “large” (macroscopic) distances we call it“Long Range Order” • Amorphous solids do not have Long-Range Order • Short Range Order
SOLIDS • Crystals Solids: • Short Range Order • Long Range Order • Amorphous solids: • Short Range Order • No Long-Range Order
Crystals • The periodic array of atoms, ions, or molecules that form the solids is called Crystal Structure • Crystal Structure = Space (Crystal) Lattice + Basis • Space (Crystal) Lattice is a regular periodic arrangement of points in space, and is purely mathematical abstraction • Crystal Structure is formed by “putting” the identical atoms (group of atoms) in the points of the space lattice • This group of atoms is called Basis
Crystals Crystal Structure = Space Lattice + Basis

3-D Unit Cell Different lattice systems are created by varying the lengths a, b and c and the angles , and . • To examine the point symmetry, we look for: • rotation symmetry axes, • reflection planes and • inversion centre. SEVEN systems for 3-D lattices.

BRAVAIS LATTICES. A complete analysis based on mathematics and geometry has shown that a single lattice system can have at the most FOUR types. In all the seven lattice systems have a total of 14 types. These are called theBRAVAIS LATTICES.
Lattice points at the corners of the parallelopiped and at the centre of the faces which intersect c. Unit Cell P type PRIMITIVE LATTICE Lattice points only at the corners of the parallelepiped. BASE CENTRED LATTICE
Unit Cell I type BODY-CENTRED LATTICE Lattice points at the corners of the parallelopiped and at the centre of the each unit cell. FACE- CENTRED LATTICE F type Lattice points at the corners of the parallelepiped and at the centre of each face of the unit cell.
Seven systems divide into 14 Bravais lattices : • Triclinic P • Monoclinic P, C • Orthorhombic P, C, I, F • Trigonal P • Hexagonal P • Tetragonal P, I • Cubic P, I, F
Seven systems divide into 14 Bravais lattices : Notation P: Primitive (lattice points only at the corners of the unit cell) I: Body-centred (lattice points at the corners + one lattice point at the centre of the unit cell) F: Face-centred (lattice points at the corners + lattice points at centres of all faces of the unit cell) C: End-centred or base-centred (lattice points at the corners + two lattice points at the centres of a pair of opposite faces)

CRYSTAL DEFECTS • All atoms are at rest on their correct lattice position. • Metals are not perfect neither at the macro level and nor at the micro level • Contain a number of different types of crystalline defects (at the atomic level) • Vibration of atoms can be regarded as a form of defects. • Defects are important in many processes e.g. diffusion, deformation.
Classification of defects in solids • Zero-dimensional (point) defects • Vacancies, Interstitial atoms (ions), Foreign atoms (ions) • One-dimensional (linear) defects • Edge dislocation, screw dislocation • Two-dimensional (flat) defects • Antiphase boundary, shear plane, low angle twist • boundary, low angle tilt boundary, grain boundary, surface • Three-dimensional (spatial) defects • Pores, foreign inclusions
Vacancy Interstitial Non-ioniccrystals Impurity Substitutional 0D(Point defects) Frenkel defect Ioniccrystals Schottky defect • 0D (point) defects are imperfect point-like regions in the crystal about the size of 1-2 atomic diameters. • The extent of the distortion field may however extend to a larger distance. • Point defects can be created by ‘removal’, ‘addition’ or displacement of an atomic species (atom, ion). • Defect structures in ionic crystals can be more complex and are not discussed in detail in the elementary introduction.
