Crystalline vs. Non-crystalline Crystalline materials... atoms pack in periodic, 3D arrays typical of: -metals -many ceramics -some polymers crystalline SiO2 Non-crystalline materials... atoms have no periodic packing occurs for: -complex structures -rapid cooling amorphous" = non-crystalline noncrystalline SiO2
ex) gypsum (CaSO 4 2H 2 O) Thermal Conductivity Monoclinic heated metal tip wax gypsum *ellipsoidal rather than circular
Physical Properties - scalar (zero rank tensor)- non-directional physical quantities, a single number ex) density, temperature - vector (first rank tensor)- magnitude and direction an arrow of definite length and direction ex) mechanical force, electric field, temperature gradient three mutually perpendicular axes Ox 1,Ox 2,Ox 3 components E = [ E1, E2, E3]
Physical Properties - second rank tensor - mechanical analogy central ring-2 pairs of springs at right angle springs on opposite sides are identical but have a different spring constant to perpendicular pair force (cause vector) displacement (effect vector) if a force is applied in a general direction, the displacement will not be in the same direction as the applied force (depends on relative stiffness)
Second Rank Tensor - problem solving 1. find components of the force F in the direction of each of the two springs 2. work out the displacement which each force component would produce parallel to each spring 3. combine two orthogonal displacement to find the resultant displacement
Second Rank Tensor F sinθ y kf 2 sinθ F cosθ θ kf 1 cosθ φ resultant displacement F x 1. force F = [ Fcos θ, Fsin θ] 2. spring constant along x and y are k and k, respectively 3. displacement [ kfcos θ, kfsin θ] 1 2 resultant displacement tanφ = k k 2 1 1 2 tanθ
Second Rank Tensor - consequences 1. in an anisotropic system, the effect vector is not, in general, parallel to the applied cause vector. 2. in two-dimensional example, there are two orthogonal directions along which the effect is parallel to the cause. 3. an anisotropic system can be analyzed in terms of components along these orthogonal principal directions, termed principal axes. along these principal axes, the values of the physical property are termed the principal values.

Representation Quadric
Representation Quadric - in a symmetric tensor refered to arbitrary axes, the number of independent components is six. - if the tensor is refered to its principal axes, the number of independent components is reduced to three. - the number of degree of freedom is nevertheless still six, for three independent quantities are needed to specify the directions of the axes, and three to fix the magnitudes of the principal components.

Effect of Crystal Symmetry on Crystal Properties - Neumann's Principle the symmetry elements of any physical properties of a crystal must include the symmetry elements of the point group of the crystal - physical properties may, and often do, possess more symmetry than the point group. - ex1) cubic crystals - optically isotropic physical property (isotropic) possesses the symmetry elements of all the cubic point groups.
Effect of Crystal Symmetry on Crystal Properties - ex2) trigonal system (tourmaline, 3 m) - optical properties (variation of refractive index with direction - indicatrix) indicatrix for 3m- ellipsoid of revolution about triad axis (optic axis) ellipsoid of revolution- vertical triad axis three vertical planes of symmetry (extra- center of symmetry, other symmetry elements) - the symmetry of a physical property a relation between certain measurable quantities associated with the crystal
Effect of Crystal Symmetry on Crystal Properties - all second-rank tensor properties are centrosymmetric. p = Tq i ij j - p = T ( q ) T : unchanged i ij j ij - symmetric second-rank tensor- 6 independent components - symmetry of crystal reduces the number of independent components - consider representation quadric for symmetric second rank tensor
