MILLER INDICES
Fig. 2.26 in Nesse, 2000
Method:
1) Axial ratio: Ex. 1.09:1:0.59
2) Determining the axial intercepts from the origin (ia, ib, ic) for the considered face:
Ex.: ia=3.82 cm, ib=3.5cm, ic=2.07cm
3)Miller index obtained by dividing the axial ratio by intercepts: Ex.: (hkl)α(a/ia, b/ib, c/ic)=(1.09/3.82, 1/3.5,0.59/2.07)
(hkl)α (0.29 0.29 0.29) ➱ (hkl)= (111)
