Question: A periodic structure is shown below (this structure extends in all directions). The dimension of each square box represented by the dotted line is 1.5

A periodic structure is shown below (this structure extends in all directions). The dimension of each square box represented by the dotted line is 1.5 Angstroms. (A) Draw a primitive cell with the primitive vector(s) shown. Give numerical values for the lengths of the primitive vector(s). (B) (i) Write the central equation that you will use to calculate the energy band structure and (ii) name the method (or theorem). This is a one-line answer. (C) (EE 539 only) If there is only one orbital per atom, (ii) write down the precise mathematical form of the wavefunction with wave vectors in detail. You do not have to solve anything or give numerical values. (ii) Give the range of wave vectors (with numerical values with units) that give unique wavefunctions
