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
