Body-Centered Tetragonal (abbreviated BCT in this article) is one of the advanced crystal structures, so if you’re searching for information about it, I’m assuming you’re a somewhat advanced...
Alright, now we’re getting to the less-common crystal structures. If you’re searching for information about simple tetragonal crystal cells, I’m assuming you’re a somewhat advanced student in...
The Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP) crystal structure is one of the most common ways for atoms to arrange themselves in metals. The HCP crystal structure is based on the Bravais lattice of the same...
The Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) crystal structure is one of the most common ways for atoms to arrange themselves in metals. The BCC crystal structure is based on the Bravais lattice of the same name,...
Perhaps the most common crystal structure is Face-Centered Cubic (FCC). The crystal structure is based on the Bravais lattice of the same name, with a single atom at each lattice point on the...
The simplest unit cell is Simple Cubic (SC). This crystal structure is just a cube with an atom on each corner. The simple cubic unit cell may also be called “primitive cubic” and thus...
