Bravais Lattice

Description:

A Bravais lattice is a fundamental concept in crystallography that describes the geometric arrangement of lattice points in a crystal structure. It represents the repeating pattern of these lattice points, which are imaginary points in space indicating the positions of atoms, ions, or molecules that make up the crystal.

Sample Sentences:

1. The Bravais lattice system categorizes crystal structures into 14 possible types.
2. Both the cubic and hexagonal Bravais lattices are commonly found in nature.
3. The Bravais lattice determines the symmetry and physical properties of a crystal.
