can anyone explain "designation of planes by miller indices" and the procedure for determiningthe miller indices for a plane?

how to find out miller indices of a shaded region in a plane?

please...........

hey guys

amswer me naa please.........

HEY WHATS THIS MILLER INDICES?

For the determination of structures of solids and for considering the structural characteristics of surfaces the arrangements of lattice points in planes of the crystal are important. The different crystal planes are defined by their Miller indices. The Miller indices of a crystal plane are constructed by determining the intersection of the plane with the x,y,z axes and then taking the reciprocals, by convention written as (hkl).

In the examples shown in the diagram below the intercepts of the plane of red atoms are (1,?,?), (?,1,?) and (?,?,1) on going from left to right. Taking the reciprocals of each intercept gives the Miller indices (100), (010) and (001) respectively. Note that each Miller index represents a whole set of planes all parallel to one another. Thus the expression (100) may be used to indicate either an individual plane or the whole set of planes.
