FCC Unit Cell:
• If we start with a layer of atoms closely placed and then add a second layer we can go on to
add a third layer in two ways.
• If the third layer is not directly above previous layers, we end up with a face-centered cubic
lattice. However, if the third layer is directly above the first the packing is equally dense but
has a different structure, called hexagonal close packing.

Tetrahedral Voids:
• Voids surrounded by 4 sphere in a lattice is called Tetrahedral void.
• It is formed by 3 face centered atoms and 1 corner atom in a unit cell.
• The depression of the 3 atoms in 1st layer covered by 1 atom from the 2nd layer produce a void
called as tetrahedral void
• They are present at ¼ distance from the corner of a body diagonals. One body diagonals have
2 tetrahedral voids.
• So the Zeffective for number of tetrahedral voids per unit cell is
No of T.V = 4*2 = 8
Voids/cell=8 1 at corner of unit
