D hkl hexagonal. A web based program identified by the clickable icon is provided here to demonstrate the calculation of hkl values and d spacings. For y direction r a 1 2 a 2 that is 120 direction the system is based on four translation vectors three of them being in the hexagon plane i e. Crystal geometry equations for xrd d spacings and miller indices symmetry. This four index scheme for labeling planes in a hexagonal lattice makes permutation symmetries apparent.
Hexagonal structure is very similar to the tetragonal structure. A 1 a 2 a s. In hexagonal lattice and crystals directions and planes are designated by the 4 index notations hkil called as miller bravais m b notation. L2 c2 rhombohedral.
The collective notation for a family of planes is hkl each plane is identical except for the consequences of our arbitrary choice of axis labels and directions. The d spacing and the miller indices are related by the above equation. Conveniently for a cubic crystal the real and reciprocal basis vector are along the same direction which means the direction of the vector mathbf g can be described in real space by h k l. As we all know miller indices of a hexagonal.

With hexagonal and rhombohedral lattice systems it is possible to use the bravais miller system which uses four indices h k i ℓ that obey the constraint. Among the three sides two of them are equal a b c two of the interaxial angles are 90 o while the third is 120 o α β 90 o. The 6 th block uvw hkl uses the fact that the reciprocal lattice vector mathbf g hkl with components h k l is perpendicular to the plane with miller indices hkl. 1 d 2 h 2 k2 l sin2 2 hk kl hl cos cos a 1 3cos 2cos3 orthorhombic.
I calculated the d for bragg s equation for all three peaks. I have to calculate the hkl values for them. Of crystallographic directions hexagonal crystal the hexagon edge x direction is parallel to the translation vector a 1 that is r a 1 hence is along the 100 direction. Before touching to the aforementioned problem let s understand the hexagonal system itself.
Here h k and ℓ are identical to the corresponding miller indices and i is a redundant index. It has been verified that 111 family includes eight planes and the 110 family includes 12 planes in a cubic system. In this post the importance of m b notations and derivation for i h k is discussed.
