  2. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    The plane of a face-centered cubic lattice is a hexagonal grid. Attempting to create a base-centered cubic lattice (i.e., putting an extra lattice point in the center of each horizontal face) results in a simple tetragonal Bravais lattice. Coordination number (CN) is the number of nearest neighbors of a central atom in the structure. [1]

  4. Nickel - Wikipedia

    Its Curie temperature is 355 °C (671 °F), meaning that bulk nickel is non-magnetic above this temperature. [20] [14] The unit cell of nickel is a face-centered cube; it has lattice parameter of 0.352 nm, giving an atomic radius of 0.124 nm. This crystal structure is stable to pressures of at least 70 GPa.

  5. Atomic packing factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_packing_factor

    Each corner atom touches the center atom. A line that is drawn from one corner of the cube through the center and to the other corner passes through 4r, where r is the radius of an atom. By geometry, the length of the diagonal is a √ 3. Therefore, the length of each side of the BCC structure can be related to the radius of the atom by

    In another example, iron transforms from a body-centered cubic (bcc) structure called ferrite to a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure called austenite when it is heated. [14] The fcc structure is a close-packed structure unlike the bcc structure; thus the volume of the iron decreases when this transformation occurs.

  7. Interstitial site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_site

    Octahedral (red) and tetrahedral (blue) interstitial symmetry polyhedra in a face-centered cubic lattice. The actual interstitial atom would ideally be in the middle of one of the polyhedra. A close packed unit cell, both face-centered cubic and hexagonal close packed, can form two different shaped holes.

  8. Centered cube number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centered_cube_number

    A centered cube number is a centered figurate number that counts the points in a three-dimensional pattern formed by a point surrounded by concentric cubical layers ...

  9. Periodic table (crystal structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(crystal...

    The Body centered cubic structure (BCC). It is not a close packed structure. In this each metal atom is at the centre of a cube with 8 nearest neighbors, however the 6 atoms at the centres of the adjacent cubes are only approximately 15% further away so the coordination number can therefore be considered to be 14 when these are on one 4 fold ...
