If a plane crosses x y and z axes at 105 and 025 the miller

If a plane crosses x, y and z axes at 1,0.5, and 0.25, the miller indices of the plane will be (1 2 ___). Enter the missing miller index in z direction?

Solution

4 is the answer

A) Interpretation of input from the given question

B) Procedure:

C) Solution:

Following the steps in (B) for this problem:

1) Intercepts are 1,0.5,0.25 or 1,1/2,1/4 hence x=1,y=1/2, z=1/4

2) Convert them to fraction:

3) Take Reciproclas of fractional form of step 2:

and hence our missing index in teh z direction is 4a = 4*1 = 4
