Crystal Structure Unit Cells
- In a body-centered (BC) unit cell, there are 2 particles in total: 1 at the corner and 1 at the center of the unit cell.
Face-Centered Unit Cell
- In a face-centered (FC) unit cell, particles are located at the corners and at the center of each of the six faces of the cube.
Simple Cubic Structure
- A simple cubic (SC) structure is composed of 8 unit cells that contribute to its overall structure.
