Crystal net is built from planes <strong>of</strong> atoms that are spaced at a distance d. Many<br />

atomic planes can be dist<strong>in</strong>guished, however, each one with a different d-spac<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

In the unit cell, a, b <strong>and</strong> c (length) <strong>and</strong> α, β <strong>and</strong> γ angles between a, b <strong>and</strong> c are<br />

lattice constant or parameters, which can be determ<strong>in</strong>ed from X-ray diffraction<br />

measurement.<br />

5.1. Crystal Systems <strong>and</strong> Space Lattices<br />

Depend<strong>in</strong>g on the atom arrangement <strong>in</strong> the lattice a given structure can be<br />

assigned to one <strong>of</strong> six crystal systems characterized by the ratios <strong>of</strong> the lattice<br />

parameters: a, b <strong>and</strong> c-<strong>and</strong> the three angles def<strong>in</strong>ed by those edges –α =
