I have been learning kittel's solid physics,
But find it hard to have a firm grab of what a reciprocal lattice is like and can't understand it's relationship with e original lattice.. Is there a picture that draws a lattice n its reciprocal lattice into e same picture? so that i can visualize what a reci latt really is like..
I also find kittel's Fourier analysis of a lattice rather hard and disliked it very much..
Is there a simpler approach?
I mean its just a bunch of periodic repetitions cells so what's the meaning of introducing such an complex method?
