A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid
material, whose constituent atoms,
molecules, or ions are arranged in an
orderly repeating pattern extending in all
three spatial dimensions. It has long-range
atomic order due to periodic arrangement
(i.e. crystalline or morphous). Most metals
and semiconductors are crystalline solids
Solid materials can exist in either crystal
or amorphous or a combination of both

An amorphous solid is a solid in which there is
no long-range order of the positions of the atoms.
In other word it has no definite form or distinct
shape due to random (irregular) atomic arrangement. Glass and plastic are examples of amorphous solids
Polycrystalline materials are solids that are
composed of many crystallites of varying size and
orientation. The variation in direction can be
random (random texture) or directed, possibly due
to growth and processing conditions. Most metals
and ceramics exist in this polycrystalline form

mathematics and geometry has
shown that a single lattice system
can have at the most FOUR types.
In all the seven lattice systems have
a total of 14 types.

Definition of Miller Index
Miller indices are a notation system in
crystallography for planes and directions in
crystal (Bravais) lattices
Miller Indices (hkl) are a symbolic vector
representation for the orientation of an atomic
plane in a crystal lattice and are defined as the
reciprocals of the fractional intercepts which the
plane makes with the crystallographic axes

Inter-planer Distance
(hkl) represent a family of planes. All parallel
crystal planes have the same Miller index.
These planes are equally spaced at distance
dhkl . This distance is defined as:
√h 2 + k 2 + l 2

These are defects of atomic dimensions that usually result from:
1. The presence of an impurity atom
Substitutional →larger atoms
Interstitial → smaller atoms
2. The absence of a matrix atom (vacancy)
3. The presence of a matrix atom in a wrong
place (self-interstitial)

First a closed circuit is drawn around the dislocation by jumping from one atom to another.
The same number of jumps will be made in a perfect system.
The vector needed to complete the circuit is called BURGER VECTOR.

• Dislocation motion requires the successive bumping
of a half plane of atoms (from left to right here).
• Bonds across the slipping planes are broken and
remade in succession.

• Dislocations are simply slide or slip of one portion of crystal system over another as dislocations move one part of the system relative to the other.
• When dislocations pass through the whole system, the system permanently deforms.
• Dislocations are on boundary between the regions where slip has occured and where it has not.
• On either side of the dislocation crystalline system is essentially perfect.

3.INTERFACIAL DEFECTS (BOUNDARIES)
Boundaries could be summarized into three:
1. Free surfaces: Interfaces between liquids and gases.
2. Grain boundaries: Interfaces between crystal systems having different orientation.
In each crystal system the atoms are arranged orderly. However, at the boundary there is a transition zone which is not alinged with either of the crystal systems.

3. Interphase boundaries: similar to grain
boundaries both in shape and behavior.
However, in these systems there are two or
more materials having different crystal
structures. Multiphase materials having a
change in physical and/or chemical
characteristics will also have interphase
boundaries. (Ex: ice-water)

4. BULK DEFECTS
They are either introduced during the production of the material or during its fabrication.
For example → inclusions (cracks,
notches, air bubbles & etc.) added during
production.

IMPORTANCE OF IMPERFECTIONS Most of the properties of materials are affected by
imperfections:
Small amount of impurity atoms may increase the electrical conductivity of semi-conductors.
Dislocations are responsible for ductility. Strength of materials can be increased to a large extent by the mechanism “strain-hardening” which produces line defects that act as a barrier to control the growth of other imperfections.
Presence of bulk defects such as cracks, notches, holes causes brittle materials, which break at very low stresses without showing large deformations.
