SURFACE TOPOGRAPHY OF SINGLE CRYSTALS OF FACE- CENTERED-CUBIC, BODY-CENTERED-CUBIC, SODIUM CHLORIDE, DIAMOND, AND ZINC-BLENDE STRUCTURES

摘要

Atom locations on planes of ideal crystals in face-centered-cubic, body-centered-cubic, sodium chloride, diamond, and zinc-blende structures were ob¬tained on an IBM 7090 computer by quantizing the vector equation of a plane whose orientation is described by the Miller indices. The plotting of solu¬tions results in an orthographic projection of the respective surface plane and several parallel planes immediately adjacent. Surface density, interplanar distance, number of nearest and next nearest neighbors and their locations, nearest surface neighbor distance, and displacement vector are calculated from the atom positions.
