Crystal Structure & its Determination — UPSC Physics Optional IFoS 2024 Paper II

Consider the planes with indices (1\ 0\ 0) and (0\ 0\ 1); the lattice is f.c.c., and the indices refer to the conventional cubic cell. What are the indices of these planes when referred to the primitive axes : \vec{a}_1 = \frac{a}{2}(\hat{x}+\hat{y}), \vec{a}_2 = \frac{a}{2}(\hat{y}+\hat{z}) and \vec{a}_3 = \frac{a}{2}(\hat{z}+\hat{x})?
