    A What is the Wigner–Seitz cell of diamond?

    Okay but Wikipedia says that the tetrahedral cell is the unit cell of diamond, but it's not completely accurate. The unit cell one usually refers to is the 2 FCC compenetrated structure. What I'm trying to understand is the drawing of the primitive cell inside of a diamond crystal, how many...

    A What is the Wigner–Seitz cell of diamond?

    This is the geometry of the weigner seitz cell for crystal, but how can I visualize it inside of the conventional diamond cell? I can't see how is it shaped inside the conventional cell in order to obtain a cell that contain only one lattice point. And further more, when we consider the lattice...

    A What is the Wigner–Seitz cell of diamond?

    Hi everybody, I'm struggling with some solid state physics topics. I am dealing with the Carbon diamond crystal structure, which is basically made of 2 FCC compenetrated. I really cannot visualize the Wigner–Seitz cell of this structure, is it possible to do it? I was thinking about visualizing...
