1. Conductivity and two general modes of charge transport in solid-state materials (Fig. 1b)

coherent band transport（相干带运输）and hopping transport(跳跃运输)

2. What is Bravais lattice, what is basis and what is crystal lattice (Fig. 2). The differences between five possible Bravais lattices in two dimensions (Fig. 2.3)

A crystal structure is defined by the so-called bravais lattice and so-called basis.

描述任何晶体固体的一个基本概念是Bravais点阵（晶格），它规定了晶体重复单元排列的周期阵列。这些单位本身可能是单个原子、原子群、分子、离子等，但布拉维晶格仅概括了基本周期结构的几何结构，而不管实际单位可能是什么。以下是两种等效的定义：

 

3. What are the Miller indexes (hkl). Also, describe Miller indexes (hkil) for hexagonal structures

晶向：表示晶体中点阵方向的指数，由晶向上阵点的坐标值决定。

晶面：表示晶体中点阵平面的指数，由晶面与三个坐标轴的截距值决定。

晶向族：晶体中原子排列情况相同但空间位向不同的一组晶向称为晶向族。

晶面族：晶体中具有等同条件，即原子排列情况和晶面间距完全相同，只是空间位向不同的各组晶面称为晶面族。

晶带轴：所有平行或相交于某一晶向直线的晶面构成一个晶带，此直线称为晶带轴。属此晶带的晶面称为共带面。
