LLINE MATERIALS
crystalline solids are composed of a collection of many small crystals or grains;
materials are termed polycrystalline. Various stages in the solidification of a
ystalline specimen are represented schematically in Figure 3.17. Initially, small
ls or nuclei form at various positions. These have random crystallographic ori-
ons, as indicated by the square grids. The small grains grow by the successive
on from the surrounding liquid of atoms to the structure of each. The ex-
(a)
ies of adjacent grains impinge on one another as the solidification process ap- (b)
hes completion. As indicated in Figure 3.17, the crystallographic orientation
from grain to grain. Also, there exists some atomic mismatch within the re-
where two grains meet; this area, called a grain boundary, is discussed in more
in Section 4.6.
Y
hysical properties of single crystals of some substances depend on the crys-
raphic direction in which measurements are taken. For example, the elastic
lus, the electrical conductivity, and the index of refraction may have different
in the [100] and [111] directions. This directionality of properties is termed
ropy, and it is associated with the variance of atomic or ionic spacing with
llographic direction. Substances in which measured properties are independ-
the direction of measurement are isotropic. The extent and magnitude of
