Chapter 3, Problem 3.57P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Miller indices for the directions inthe hexagonal lattice using three- digit and four-digit systems.

Concept introduction:

Miller indices at the planes pass through the three points at edges of the crystal structure. In crystalline material, all the points, planes and directions are specified within the unit cell. The direction is defined as a line between two points.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The following hexagonal lattice:

Essentials Of Materials Science And Engineering, Chapter 3, Problem 3.57P

Steps for calculating miller indices for given directions are:

  1. Find head point coordinate (direction of a head point from the origin (x,y,z) )
  2. Find-tail point coordinate (x,y,z)
  3. Head point coordinate − tail point coordinate

Miller indices for plane A:

Head points = 0,1,1

Tail point = 1/2, 1, 0

Head point − Tail point:

  = (1/2, 0, 1)= (1/2, 0, 1)×2= (1, 0, 2)= [1¯ 0 2]

Four-digit system

Convert the three-digitsystem into a four-digit system.

  [h,k,l] = [1¯ 0 2]

Coordinates of four-digit system.

  h=1/3[2hk] =1/3[20] =2/3k=1/3[2kh] =1/3[0( 1)] =1/3i=1/3[h+k] =1/3[1+0] =+1/3l=1/3[h+k] =1/3[1+0] =+1/3

  l=l=2[h k i l] = [2/3, 1/3, +1/3, 2]            = [2/3, 1/3, +1/3, 2]×3            = [2, 1, +1, 6]            = [ 2 ¯ 1 1 6]

Miller indices for plane B:

Head points = 1,0,0

Tail point = 1, 1, 1

Head point − Tail point:

  =0, 1, 1= [0 1¯ 1¯]

Four-digit system

Convert the three-digitsystem into a four-digit system.

  [h,k,l] = [0 1¯ 1¯]

Coordinates of the four-digit system.

  h=1/3[2hk] =1/3[0( 1)] =1/3k=1/3[2kh] =1/3[20] =2/3i=1/3[h+k] =1/3[0+( 1)] =1/3l=l=1[h k i l] = [1/3, 2/3, 1/3, 1            = [1/3, 2/3, 1/3, 1]*3            = [1, 2, 1, 3]            = [1  2 ¯ 1  3 ¯]

Miller indices for plane C:

Three digit system:

Head points = 0,0,0

Tail point = 1, -1, 1

Head point − Tail point:

  = (1, 1 1)= [1¯ 1 1¯]

Four-digit system

Convert three systems into four-digit system.

  [h,k,l] = [1,1,1]h=1/3[2hk] =1/3[21] =1k=1/3[2kh] =1/3[2+1] =1i=1/3[h+k] =1/3[1+1] =0l=l=1[h k i l] = [1, 1, 0, 1]            = [ 1 ¯ 1 0  1 ¯]
