Zone – a collection of crystal<br />

faces with parallel edges.<br />

In crystal classes with<br />

orthogonal axes (isometric,<br />

tetragonal, orthorhombic)<br />

zone axes correspond with<br />

crystallographic axes. For<br />

example, zone [001] is<br />

perpendicular <strong>to</strong> face (001).<br />

In crystal classes where all<br />

axes are not orthogonal, the<br />

zone axes do not correspond<br />

<strong>to</strong> some or all of the<br />

crystallographic axes.
