Interfacial Defects

For an FCC single crystal, would you expect the surface energy for a (100) plane to be greater or less than that for a (111) plane? Why? (Note: You may want to consult the solution to Problem 3.82 at the end of Chapter 3.)

Problem 3.82

(a) Derive planar density expressions for FCC (100) and (111) planes in terms of the atomic radius R.


(b) Compute and compare planar density values for these same two planes for aluminum (Al).
