2012 1 # 1 Due 2012.04.10 Why doesnt face-centered tetragonal present in 14 Bravais lattices? Problem 1.

lem 1.1 (a) According to the definition of a ceramic given in the text, would you consider Si3N4 a ceramic? How about CCl4, SiCl4, or SiF4? Explain. (b) Would you consider TiAl3 a ceramic? How about Al3C4, BN, CN, or SiB6? Explain. Problem 1.2 How many crystal systems would you expect in two dimensions? Draw them and characterize them by their lattice parameters. How many Bravais lattices are there in two dimensions? The face-centered cubic cell may be referred to the rhombohedral cell. Using a sketch show the relationship between the two cells. Write each translation vectors of facecentered lattices. Draw a 2-D virtual crystal that is square lattice with two different particles. Two particles are located at (0,0) and (1/2, 1/2), respectively.
