Question: Structure shown below is 2 D boron nitride ( B N ) crystal, where the red atoms are B and the blue atoms are N

Structure shown below is 2 D boron nitride (BN) crystal, where the red atoms are B and the blue atoms are N . The two basis vectors are shown by the dashed lines, which have the same length and 60 angle.
(1) If B-N bond length is a. What is the length of the basis vector?
(2) How many B and N are there in the unit cell constructed by the basis vectors? What are their coordinates (in the units of basis vectors)?
(3) What is the area of the unit cell?
(4) Draw the lattice and the conventional cell
(5) What are the lattice parameters?
Structure shown below is 2 D boron nitride ( B N
