2 ISSUES TO ADDRESS... How do atoms assemble into solid structures? How does the density of a material depend on its structure? How do the crystal structures of ceramic materials differ from those for metals? When do material properties vary with the sample (i.e., part) orientation? 2

4 Energy and Packing Non dense, random packing Energy typical neighbor bond length typical neighbor bond energy r Dense, ordered packing Energy typical neighbor bond length typical neighbor bond energy r Dense, ordered packed structures tend to have lower energies. 4

5 Materials and Packing Crystalline materials... atoms pack in periodic, 3D arrays typical of: -metals -many ceramics -some polymers crystalline SiO2 Noncrystalline materials... atoms have no periodic packing occurs for: -complex structures -rapid cooling Si Oxygen "Amorphous" = Noncrystalline noncrystalline SiO2 5

6 Metallic Crystal Structures How can we stack metal atoms to minimize empty space? 2-dimensions vs. Now stack these 2-D layers to make 3-D structures 6

7 Metallic Crystal Structures Tend to be densely packed. Reasons for dense packing: - Typically, only one element is present, so all atomic radii are the same. - Metallic bonding is not directional. - Nearest neighbor distances tend to be small in order to lower bond energy. - Electron cloud shields cores from each other Have the simplest crystal structures. We will examine three such structures... 7

8 Simple Cubic Structure (SC) Rare due to low packing density (only Po has this structure) Close-packed directions are cube edges. Coordination # = 6 (# nearest neighbors) 8

9 Atomic Packing Factor (APF) APF = Volume of atoms in unit cell* Volume of unit cell APF for a simple cubic structure = 0.52 a *assume hard spheres close-packed directions contains 8 x 1/8 = 1 atom/unit cell R=0.5a atoms unit cell APF = 1 volume 4 3 p (0.5a) 3 atom a 3 volume unit cell 9

11 Body Centered Cubic Structure (BCC) Atoms touch each other along cube diagonals. --Note: All atoms are identical; the center atom is shaded differently only for ease of viewing. ex: Cr, W, Fe ( ), Tantalum, Molybdenum Coordination # = 8 (Courtesy P.M. Anderson) 2 atoms/unit cell: 1 center + 8 corners x 1/8 11

12 Atomic Packing Factor: BCC APF for a body-centered cubic structure = a a 2 a R a Close-packed directions: length = 4R = 3 a atoms unit cell APF = p ( 3a/4) 3 a 3 volume unit cell volume atom 12

14 Face Centered Cubic Structure (FCC) Atoms touch each other along face diagonals. --Note: All atoms are identical; the face-centered atoms are shaded differently only for ease of viewing. ex: Al, Cu, Au, Pb, Ni, Pt, Ag Coordination # = 12 4 atoms/unit cell: 6 face x 1/2 + 8 corners x 1/8 14

15 Atomic Packing Factor: FCC APF for a face-centered cubic structure = 0.74 maximum achievable APF 2 a a Close-packed directions: length = 4R = 2 a Unit cell contains: 6 x 1/2 + 8 x 1/8 = 4 atoms/unit cell atoms unit cell APF = p ( 2a/4) 3 a 3 volume atom volume unit cell 15
