Question

In a crystal, a plane cuts intercepts of 2a, 3b, and 6c along three crystallographic axes. The Miller Indices for the plane are:

• A. 236
• B. 321
• C. 123
• D. 632

Hint:

Miller indices represent the orientation of planes in a crystal. Always remember to take reciprocals of intercepts and clear fractions for accuracy.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The steps to calculate Miller indices are:
 Take the reciprocal of the intercepts: \(\frac{1}{2a}, \frac{1}{3b}, \frac{1}{6c}\).
   Multiply by the least common multiple to eliminate fractions: \(3, 2, 1\).
   Write the result as \((321)\).
Hence, the Miller indices are \((321)\)
