Crystal, basically a solid material whose component are atoms, molecules, and ions arranged in a regular order. In other words, the crystal is made of lattice and a basis. A lattice is a form of one, two and three-dimensional points which are in the regular pattern and a basis which is having a number of atoms to form a crystal. The mathematical study of crystal and crystal formation is known as crystallography. The symmetry of crystal plays an important role in the study of properties of the crystal. The geometrical crystal symmetry is divided into three type:
(i) Translation,
(ii) Rotation, reflection and inversion
(iii) Combination of above two type of operation. The crystal symmetry group can be divided into two type:
(i) Crystallography point group and
(ii) Crystallography space group.
A crystallographic point group having a set

Consider a regular polygon of n sides, a rotation through - about an axis normal to the plane of the polygon passing through its center is a symmetry operation for it. The cyclic group consist of n rotation and denoted by Cn. The rotational group coherent with translational symmetry in the crystal are C1, C2, C3, C4, and C6.
In this figure 3.1 which shows the projection of the atom on a plane is called stereographic projection. The point above the plane is denoted by + and the point below the plane is denoted by o. The nature of rotation is defined by the center of the circle i.e. a filled ellipse denoted a twofold axis, a filled triangle denoted a threefold axis, a filled square denoted a fourfold axis and a filled hexagon denoted a sixfold axis of proper rotation.
The reflection in the horizontal plane is denoted by σh.σh commutes with a rotation about the vertical axis.
In figure 3.2 shows the horizontal reflection plane in point group.it denoted by Ch
i.e. direct product of Cn with σh.The group Cn contains 2n
In "Energy Story" uses an explanation of atoms and tells us the parts of an atom and its structure. In the text it
Companies tend to have two very different business models. In Michael Lewis’s “Pyramids and Pancakes”, Lewis talks about how Askme.com found distinctions between the two business structures. There is the first, which is a pyramid. Lewis states that, “In pyramid-shaped, hierarchical organizations, the bosses tended to appoint themselves or a few select subordinates as the ‘experts’. Questions rose up from the bottom of the organization, the answers flowed down from the top, and original hierarchy was preserved, even reinforced”(95). The second business model is a pancake. Lewis states that, “In less hierarchical, pancake-shaped companies, the bosses
...ation their arms are parabolic ribs and in plan, each arm or leaf with its two rotates twins, forms into a triangular shape. One set of these shapes having convex outer rims and the other concave. The two juxtaposed rotations seem to minimal the alternating petals and sepals you find in certain flowers – for example, the Columbine pictured in Figure 14. A similar flower, in which petals and sepals alternate as they spiral, belongs to the strawberry plant. The stamens and pistils in the center of either blossom would be the base of Borromini, his two type of leaves.25
The crystalline lens is a fibrous, jelly-like material that serves to fine tune the vision process by adjusting its shape and therefore the focal length of the system.
Quartz crystals are made up of silicone and oxygen. They can change colours when other metals or minerals are added to them. Clear quartz crystals are more famous and they look more ethereal as compared to the coloured ones.
In spherical structure of co-ordinates, the point is denoted by its distance from origin, and two angles. These two angles are called as the azimuth and inclination. Spherical is rotated based on the axis of rotation concept.
Don’t always trust what you see, even salt looks like sugar. Have you ever wondering how to make rock candy? Well forming salt crystals work just about the same way. You may be very interested in how this process works because science behind the crystals are actually very interesting and simple. From how they transform, to how they are made, and how all of this occurs. Hopefully what you read will make you want to try this out for yourself.
...ture points are selected on these vectors. The number of points on the radial line is called radial resolution and along the angular line is called angular resolution.
As stated by John Fuchs, “The triangle is the only two dimensional polygon that if constructed of rigid members with hinged corners is absolutely
The unique nature of diamond is heavily dependent upon its composition, crystal structure, and mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic properties.1 Of those dependencies, composition exacts the most influence over the characteristics. Crystal structure is the repeating pattern of diamond’s composition, and each of the properties are the result of molecular interaction which is determined by composition. Therefore, composition is paramount in the determination of the qualities of diamond.
This feature is used to measure the uniformity or energy from an image. Angular Second Moment is very large, if the pixels are very similar.
An orientation mark either as notch (a small kerf of 1 mm at the very wafer edge) or flat (used in previous technologies of 200mm wafers and below) is made to mark the crystalline orientation of the wafer ground material single crystal. A chosen edge of the wafer is sliced a little for the orientation identification of the wafer known as flat
