  16. 21 11 What Symmetry element makes the center of symmetry appear? table_06_04

  17. Only 6 Different Crystal SystemsDetermined by Axial Lengths & Angles Triclinic a≠ b ≠ c α≠β≠γ≠90° Monoclinic a≠ b ≠ c α = γ = 90°, β > 90° Tetragonal a =b ≠ c α = β = γ = 90° Orthorhombic a≠ b ≠ c α = β = γ = 90° Isometric a =b =c α = β = γ = 90° Hexagonal a1 = a2 = a3 @ 120°, c@ 90° fig_06_25

  18. Crystal Morphology & Crystallographic Axes b is pole to β > 90° plane c is Zone Axis a & b ~symmetric a b a1 a2 a3 are poles to faces in equatorial zone & 4, 2 rotational axes Hey! Somebody Has to be Perfect! fig_06_26

  20. Orientation & Intercepts of Crystal Faces, Cleavages & Mirror Planes Intercepts at Integral Valuesof Unit Cell Edges Forms Correspond To Faces, Edges& Corners of Unit Cell fig_06_27

  21. Orthorhombic Crystal with 2 Pyramidal Forms Olivine 2/m2/m2/m (Similar forms in Scheelite 4m CaWO4) fig_06_28

  22. Miller Indices • Are integers derived from the intercepts on the a, b, & c axes • Intercepts are expressed in terms of logical unit cell edge dimensions (the fundamental translation unit in the lattice) • If a = 10.4 Å , then an intercept at 5.2 Å on the a axis is ½ • Fractions are cleared by multiplying by a common denominator • e.g. a plane cutting at [⅓ ⅔ 1/∞ ] X 3 = (1 2 0)

  23. Isometric Lattice, Intercepts & Miller Indices What would be the difference between crystals which had Cleavages or other planes along (100) versus (400)? fig_06_29

  24. Miller Indices for Positive & Negative Axes This Crystal like Diamond, Fluorite or Spinel has all Faces of the “form” (111) fig_06_30

  25. A Crystal Form • A Crystal Form is a group of Like crystal faces • All faces of a given form have the same relationship to the symmetry of the crystal • In Isometric Crystals the general form (100) includes: (010) (001) (-100) (0-10) and (00-1) through the 4-fold, 3-fold, 2-fold axes and Mirror Planes • These faces will all tilt or intersect at 90° • Triclinic forms: (100) (010) & (001) all have different pitches; so they do not belong to a single common form • For 2 & 2/m Monoclinic forms (101) = (-10-1) ≠ (-101)

  26. Hexagonal 4-digit Miller-Bravais Indices a1 a2 a3 c 1 Form : Prismatic (1010) (1100) (0110) (1010) (1100) (0110) 1 Form : Pyramidal (1121) (2111) (1211) (1121) (2111) (1211) fig_06_31

  27. Crystal Zones & Zone Axes Zone Axis [001] Zone : m’ a m b • Which Forms are : • Prismatic • Pyramidal? (hkl) = a single face [hkl] = a form or pole • What is the • General form • Of the miller • Index for : • m • r’ Zone Axis [100] Zone : r’ c r b fig_06_32

  28. Conventional Lettering of Forms General Miller Indices For each form (hkl)? What symmetry makes p=p, m=m ? fig_06_33

  29. The (111) Form in 1 & 4/m 3 2/m Triclinic : Inversion Center Makes only (111) & (111) Isometric : Generates full Octahedron (111) fig_06_34

  30. Distinct Forms Manifest Different Details Striation patterns & directions differ for cube & pyritohedon forms on 2/m 3 Pyrite Striation patterns & directions differ For forms on Quartz Apophyllite KCa4(Si4O10)2 F – 8H2O 4/m 2/m 2/m Base : Pearly, others vitreous fig_06_35
