What are Bravais Lattces?
Bravais Lattice refers to the 14 different 3-dimensional configurations into which atoms can be arranged in crystals. The smallest group of symmetrically aligned atoms which can be repeated in an array to make up the entire crystal is called a unit cell.
There are several ways to describe a lattice. The most fundamental description is known as the Bravais lattice. In words, a Bravais lattice is an array of discrete points with an arrangement and orientation that look exactly the same from any of the discrete points, that is the lattice points are indistinguishable from one another.
Out of 14 types of Bravais lattices some 7 types of Bravais lattices in three-dimensional space are listed in this subsection. Note that the letters a, b, and c have been used to denote the dimensions of the unit cells whereas the letters 𝛂, 𝞫, and 𝝲 denote the corresponding angles in the unit cells.
How to Calculate 3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points?
3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points calculator uses Lattice Direction = (X-coordinate of Point in Space*Lattice Constant a)+(Y-coordinate of Point in Space*Lattice Constant b)+(Z-coordinate of Point in Space*Lattice Constant c) to calculate the Lattice Direction, The 3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points is a crystal direction [uvw] which is parallel to the direction joining the origin of the crystal lattice with the point with coordinates (ua, vb, wc) Crystal directions. Lattice Direction is denoted by r symbol.
How to calculate 3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for 3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points, enter X-coordinate of Point in Space (u'), Lattice Constant a (alattice), Y-coordinate of Point in Space (v'), Lattice Constant b (b), Z-coordinate of Point in Space (w') & Lattice Constant c (c) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the 3D Lattice Direction for points in space which are not Lattice Points calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3.9E+12 = (3*1.4E-09)+(9*1.2E-09)+(16*1.5E-09).
