The document details the fundamentals of crystal and amorphous structures within materials science, particularly focusing on unit cells, types of crystal systems, and atomic arrangements. It explains various unit cell configurations, including body-centered cubic (bcc), face-centered cubic (fcc), and hexagonal close-packed (hcp), alongside their atomic packing factors and coordination numbers. Additionally, it introduces Miller indices for identifying crystal planes and outlines the use of four indices in hexagonal unit cells.
