Crystal Structure

Properties in Nanoscale
Category General
Difficulty Level Normal
Audience Level General
Description Have a good knowledge of material structures leads to recognizing material behavior based on its structure. In this course, material structures and properties are elaborated in bulk and nanoscale.
Overview
It is clear that, every atomic structure has its own specific bulk properties. Therefore, being familiar with atomic arrangements, different atomic bonds and different kinds of cubic structures provide a general understanding for recognizing materials and components’ properties. On the other hand, in nanoscales, atomic structures are changed which generates novel properties.
Hence, being familiar with mentioned different parameters in atomic structure makes what happens in nanoscale understandable.

Booklet
Description
 It starts with an introduction, and talks about different types of solid materials based on ions and atoms order. Then it talks about crystalline materials, modeling them, and ends in lattice unit.
Mental Challenge
 How can materials be categorized based on their crystalline microstructures?
Quizzes and Activities

Activity: Find three different crystalline and non-crystalline materials and present their lattice structures.
