  2. Slip (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(materials_science)

    In the diagram on the right, the specific plane and direction are (111) and [1 10], respectively. Given the permutations of the slip plane types and direction types, fcc crystals have 12 slip systems. [3] In the fcc lattice, the norm of the Burgers vector, b, can be calculated using the following equation: [4]

  3. Structure factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_factor

    Films of FCC materials like gold tend to grow in a (111) orientation with a triangular surface symmetry. A zero diffracted intensity for a group of diffracted beams (here, h , k , ℓ {\displaystyle h,k,\ell } of mixed parity) is called a systematic absence.

  4. Stacking fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking_fault

    Comparison of fcc and hcp lattices, explaining the formation of stacking faults in close-packed crystals. In crystallography, a stacking fault is a planar defect that can occur in crystalline materials. [1] [2] Crystalline materials form repeating patterns of layers of atoms. Errors can occur in the sequence of these layers and are known as ...

  5. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    A packing density of 1, filling space completely, requires non-spherical shapes, such as honeycombs. Replacing each contact point between two spheres with an edge connecting the centers of the touching spheres produces tetrahedrons and octahedrons of equal edge lengths. The FCC arrangement produces the tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb.

  6. Cross slip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_Slip

    In face centered cubic (FCC) metals, screw dislocations can cross-slip from one {111} type plane to another. However, in FCC metals, pure screw dislocations dissociate into two mixed partial dislocations on a {111} plane, and the extended screw dislocation can only glide on the plane containing the two partial dislocations. [ 2 ]

  7. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    [4] [5] The bcc and fcc, with their higher densities, are both quite common in nature. Examples of bcc include iron, chromium, tungsten, and niobium. Examples of fcc include aluminium, copper, gold and silver. Another important cubic crystal structure is the diamond cubic structure, which can appear in carbon, silicon, germanium, and tin.

    Rotating model of the diamond cubic crystal structure 3D ball-and-stick model of a diamond lattice Pole figure in stereographic projection of the diamond lattice showing the 3-fold symmetry along the [111] direction. In crystallography, the diamond cubic crystal structure is a repeating pattern of 8 atoms that certain materials may adopt as ...

  9. Stacking-fault energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking-fault_energy

    Partials form instead of screw dislocations. Screws which do exist cannot cross-slip across stacking faults, even under high stresses. [14] Five or more slip systems must be active for large deformations to occur because of the absence of cross-slip. For both the <111> and <100> directions there are six and eight different slip systems ...
