LatticeCubicFcc

public LatticeCubicFcc(Space space)

Cubic fcc crystal with a lattice constant that gives a maximum-density structure for spheres of unit size.

Use scaleBy method if desired to make lattice constant give maximum density for another sphere size.

LatticeCubicFcc

public LatticeCubicFcc(Space space,
                       double latticeConstant)

Method Detail

getPrimitiveFcc

public PrimitiveFcc getPrimitiveFcc()

Returns a new PrimitiveFcc instance corresponding to the fcc lattice. Changes to the returned instance have no effect on the lattice.

setLatticeConstant

public void setLatticeConstant(double latticeConstant)

The lattice constant is the size of the cubic primitive vectors of the lattice underlying this crystal.

Specified by:

setLatticeConstant in interface CubicLattice

Parameters:

latticeConstant - the unit cell size

getLatticeConstant

public double getLatticeConstant()

Description copied from interface: CubicLattice

Accesses the size of the unit cell, the length of each edge of a single cell.

Specified by:

getLatticeConstant in interface CubicLattice

scaleBy

public void scaleBy(double scaleFactor)

Rescales the lattice by the given factor. Multiplies the lattice constant by the given value.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns "Fcc".

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
