7. Give the Miller indices for a crystal face that is parallel to the a and b axes of a crystal and intersects the c axis at a length of negative one.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Miller Indices of the crystal are: [0, 0, - 1]

Solution:

As per the question:

For a plane parallel to a and b axes and intersect c axis at - 1, the intercepts made on the axes are respectively:

Intercept on a-axis = [tex]\infty[/tex]

Intercept on b-axis = [tex]\infty[/tex]

Intercept on c-axis = - 1

Now,

Weiss parameters are [tex]{\infty, \infty, - 1}[/tex]

Now,

The Miller indices are given as the reciprocal of Weiss parameter as:

a = [tex]\frac{1}{\infty}[/tex] = 0

b = [tex]\frac{1}{\infty}[/tex] = 0

c = - 1

Thus

The Miller Indices are: [0, 0, - 1]
