Packing
and
Close-packed Planes

Close-packed Xl Structures

  • FCC & HCP—APF = .74
  • Most efficient packing

for equal-sized spheres.

  • BCC—APF = .68
  • Not as efficient

Close-Packed Planes

Different Packing…
So What?

Packing along planes:

  • Strongly affects deformation
  • Atoms can slip past each other on tightly packed planes (plastic deformation).

Real World of Crystals

The perfect crystal doesn’t exist.

  • All materials have defects & impurities
  • 99.9999% pure metals have

1022 – 1023 impurity atoms/m3

Crystal defects

  • Defect—place where perfect periodicity of unit cell is interrupted.
Dimension Defect Type Examples
0 Point Vacancy, Substitutional
1 Line Dislocations
2 Interfacial Free surface, Grain boundary
3 Volume Pores, cracks, other phases

Point defects

  • I) Intrinsic—flaws in xl lattice geometry
    (no impurities)
  • II) Extrinsic—impurities

I. Intrinsic Point Defects:

1) Vacancy

When can an impurity atom
be substitutional?

Substitutional Atoms:

  • Atomic radii of host and impurity must be ± 15%

be interstitial?

Most common interstitial elements:

  • Nitrogen
  • Oxygen
  • Carbon
  • Hydrogen
