How many space lattices does the Bravais lattices consist of?
How many space lattices does the Bravais lattices consist of? Correct Answer 14
Concept:
There are 14 possible Bravais lattices in three-dimensional space.
These 14 Bravais lattices are grouped into seven lattice system:
Triclinic, Monoclinic, Orthorhombic, Tetragonal, Rhombohedral, Hexagonal, and Cubic.
Following are the crystal system and their relationship:
|
Crystal System |
Axial Relationships |
Inter axial Angles |
|
Cubic |
a = b = c |
α = β = γ = 90° |
|
Hexagonal |
a = b ≠ c |
α = β = 90°, γ = 120° |
|
Tetragonal |
a = b ≠ c |
α = β = γ = 90° |
|
Rhombohedral (Trigonal) |
a = b = c |
α = β = γ ≠ 90° |
|
Orthorhombic |
α ≠ b ≠ c |
α = β = γ = 90° |
|
Monoclinic |
a ≠ b ≠ c |
α = γ = 90° ≠ β |
|
Triclinic |
A ≠ b ≠ c |
α ≠ β ≠ γ ≠ 90° |
