Bravais lattice 布拉菲晶格
In geometry and crystallography, a Bravais lattice, studied by AugusteBravais (1850), is an infinite array of discrete points in three dimensional space generated by a set of discrete translation operations described by:
where ni are any integers and ai are known as the primitive vectors which lie in different directions and span the lattice. This discrete set of vectors must be closed under vector addition and subtraction. For any choice of position vector R, the lattice looks exactly the same.
