Cubic-Isometric System Crystal Lattice Unit Cell
The model of the cubic system shown below has the following specifications:
- The entire structure is a cube and all bonds are 63mm
- All angles are 90 degrees to each other
- There are holes in the equatorial position that are 90 apart
- The top atoms connect to the bottom atoms using the polar holes
The cubic crystal or isometric system occurs in 3 forms: simple, body centered (bcc) and face centered (fcc).
This group includes many common crystal structures such as diamond, sodium chloride and zinc blende as well as the
important semiconductors gallium arsenide and cadmium telluride. The cubic Unit cell model shown below is approximately 150mm (6")
per side and is ideal for classroom demonstration. Specific models such as those mentioned above can be found in our
or sections. |
