Week 6 Solids Flashcards
Constructive and Destructure Interference
What is Braggs law
Constructive: when 2 waves with crests and troughs perfectly align (2x amplitude)
Destructive: When two waves with crests that alighn with troughs (0 amplitude)
d=nlanda/2sintheta
d=distance, n is positive integer in moles, theta is angle of incidence, landa is wavelenth
Unit Cell
A collection of atoms, ions, molecules that is repeating unit of a crystalline lattice
Crystalline lattice
A repitition of the unit cell
Simple Cubic
How many atoms per unit cell, CN, edge length formula, packing eff.
1 Atom, 6 CN, l=2r, 52%
body Centered cubic cell
How many atoms per unit cell, CN, edge length formula, packing eff.
2 Atoms/unit cell, 8 CN, l=4r/sqrt3, 68%
Face centered cubic cell
4 Atoms, 12 CN, 2(sqrt2)r, 74%
How many atom/unit cell is in each of the following:
Corner
Edge
Face
Body
Corner=1/8
Edge=1/4
Face=1/2
Body:1
How do you get the unit cells for Simple, BCC, FCC
Simple=(1/8)(8)
BCC= 1+ (1/8)(8)
FCC=(1/8)(8) + (1/2)(6)
What are the 2 types of stacking - which is more efficient
Direct row
Half sphere offset row- more efficient
How do you get a tetrahedral structure
Offset layer stacking of Layers B on Layer A (in between the layers)
What are the closest packed styuctures called, what are their packing efficiency, how are they layered
Wh ich one is FCC
Both have 74%
Hexagonal:ABA
Cubic: ABC
Cubic is FCC
What is the formula to get packing efficiency
(N Atom)(V atom)/V Unit cell
What is the degree of order for Solids
Amorphous-Short range
Polycrystalline-Mid range
Crystalline- long range
What are the crystalline solids
Molecular solids- molecules- low melting points
Ionic solids- Have cations and anions-high meling points
Atomic solids (units are atoms)
Nonbonding-dispersion forces- low melting pt (mainly noble gases)
Metallic- metallic bonds- variable melting pts
Network Covalent- held together by covalent bonds- high melting pt
