This lecture introduces the concept of crystal structures in materials science, covering topics such as crystalline state, crystal lattice, bravais networks, miller indices, and the description of network directions and plans in cubic systems. The instructor explains how to find the indices of directions and plans in a crystal lattice, emphasizing the importance of understanding the arrangement of atoms in materials. Various examples are provided to illustrate the application of these concepts in analyzing different crystal structures.
