if rc is smaller than fRA, then the space is too big and the structure is unstable
Summary: Sites in HCP & CCP
2 tetrahedral sites / close-packed atom
1 octahedral site / close-packed atom
sites are located between layers: number of sites/atom same for ABAB & ABCABC
Common Ionic Structure Types
• Rock salt (NaCl) sometimes also ‘Halite’
– Derive from cubic-close packed array of Cl-
• Zinc blende (ZnS)
– Derive from cubic-close packed array of S=
• Fluorite (CaF2)
– Derive from cubic-close packed array of Ca2+
• Cesium chloride (CsCl)
– Not derived from a close-packed array
• Complex oxides
– Multiple cations
Example: CaF2 (Fluorite)
•
F-
~ 1.3 Å;
Ca2+
~ 1.0 Å;
– rc/RA = 0.77
• Ca2+ is big enough for CN = 8

– But there are no 8-fold sites in close-packed arrays
• Consider structure as CCP cations
– F- in tetrahedral sites
– RA / rc> 1  fluorine could have higher CN than 4
• Ca:F = 1:2  all tetrahedral sites filled
• Places Ca2+ in site of CN = 8
• Why CCP not HCP? - same reason as NaCl
Fluorite
Ca2+
FCN(F-) = 4
CN(Ca2+) = 8 [target]
CsCl
• Cl- ~ 1.8 Å; Cs+ ~ 1.7 Å;
– rc/RA = 0.94
• Cs+ is big enough for CN = 8
– But there are no 8-fold sites in close-packed arrays
• CsCl unrelated to close-packed structures
– Simple cubic array of anions
– Cs+ in cuboctahedral sites
– RA / rc> 1  chlorine ideally also has large CN
• Ca:Cl = 1:1  all sites filled
Cesium Chloride
Cl-
1 Cs+/unit cell
1 Cl-/unit cell

Why do ionic solids stay bonded?

Structures of Complex Oxides
• Multiple cations

• Capacitors
• Related to high Tc
superconductors
– Spinel
• Magnetic properties
• Covalency
– Zinc blende
• Semiconductors
– Diamond
• Semiconductors
– Silicates

• Occurs when RA ~ RO and RA > RB
• Coordination numbers

– CN(B) = 6; CN(A) = 12
– CN(O) = 2B + 4A
• CN’s make sense? e.g. SrTiO3
– RTi = 0.61 Å
– RSr = 1.44 Å
– RO = 1.36 Å

RTi/RO = 0.45

Structural Characteristics
• Metals
– Close-packed structures (CN = 12)
– Slightly less close-packed (CN = 8)
• Ionic structures
– Close-packed with constraints
– CN = 4 to 8, sometimes 12
• Covalent structures
– Not close-packed, bonding is directional
• Any can be strongly or weakly bonded (Tm)

Computing density
• Establish unit cell contents
• Compute unit cell mass
• Compute unit cell volume
– Unit cell constant, a, given (or a and c, etc.)
– Or estimate based on atomic/ionic radii
• Compute mass/volume, g/cc
• Example: NaCl
–
–
–
–
Contents = 4 Na + 4 Cl
Mass = 4(atom mass Na + atomic mass Cl)/No
