Document Summary

The material has to be continually repeating themselves, and we have to be able to describe it as a unit cell now we have to understand the contents of the unit cell. If you drop a cube at the top, the bottom lattice points are on top of the other boxes, 1/8th of an atom is projecting into the unit cell we"re looking at. Total of 1 atom sitting in the box sitting in there in parts. Coordination number: # of nearest atoms that they have around it. Efficiency where we pack atoms into a cube = 52% (volume they occupy: lattice points found on each corner. Differs from simple because there is one more lattice point in the centre of the cell. The atom in the middle have 4 neighbours at the top, and 4 below it. This implies every atom should have 8 surrounding neighbours.
