Tutorial on Describing, Classifying, and Visualizing Common Crystal Structures in Nanoscale Materials Systems.

ABSTRACT: Crystal structures underpin many aspects of nanoscience and technology, from the arrangements of atoms in nanoscale materials to the ways in which nanoscale materials form and grow to the structures formed when nanoscale materials interact with each other and assemble. The impacts of crystal structures and their relationships to one another in nanoscale materials systems are vast. This Tutorial provides nanoscience researchers with highlights of many crystal structures that are commonly observed in nanoscale materials systems, as well as an overview of the tools and concepts that help to derive, describe, visualize, and rationalize key structural features. The scope of materials focuses on the elements and their compounds that are most frequently encountered as nanoscale materials, includi
