- Crystallographic positions Crystallographic position is denoted by three numbers, which are coefficients of the position vector, e.g. ½½½ for the red atom. Here the 'new' atom is at a/2 + b/2 + c/2 Silicon crystal has so-called "diamond type lattice". Each Si atom has 4 nearest neighbors. Diamond lattice starts with a FCC lattice and then adds four additional INTERNAL atoms at locations r = a/4+b/4+c/4 away from each of the atoms. In other words, diamond lattice is formed by two FCC lattices sifted by the vector r.arrow_forwardfind the answers for this prelabarrow_forwardQ2: (30 Marks) Design a DC/DC converter that produce output waveforms that shown in figures below from a fixed DC source of 20 volts.
