3. Slide 3/20 e Summary of Last Lecture Crystal structures I Hexagonal close packing arises when close packed layers repeat every third layer (ABABABAB) Cubic close packing arises when close packed layers repeat every fourth layer (ABCABCABC) The coordination number in both types of close packing is 12 Unit cells are the simplest building blocks from which the whole solid can be built Atoms on corners of unit cells are shared between 8 cells, atoms on faces of unit cells are shared between 2 cells, atoms on edges of unit cells are shared between 4 cells and atoms at the centres of unit cells are unshared.
