FCC has various meanings in the Physics category. Discover the full forms, definitions, and usage contexts of FCC in Physics.
The face-centered cubic system (cF) has lattice points on the faces of the cube, that each gives exactly one half contribution, in addition to the corner lattice points, giving a total of 4 lattice points per unit cell (1⁄8 × 8 from the corners plus 1⁄2 × 6 from the faces). Each sphere in an fcc lattice has coordination number 12.
