STAE  DIFFERENCE  BETWEEN  THE  TETRAHEDRAL  AND  OCTAHEDRAL  VOIDS  , THEIR  LOCATIONS  WITH  THE   HELP OF FIGURE

Tetrahedral voids:

The void surrounded by four spheres sitting at the corners of a regular tetrahedron is called a tetrahedral void.
 
Whenever the sphere of the second layer is above the void of the first layer a tetrahedral void is formed.
These voids are called tetrahedral voids because a tetrahedron is formed when these four spheres are joined.
 
 
 
 
 
Octahedral Voids:
The void surrounded by six 
sitting at the corners of a regular octahedron is called an octahedral void.
The triangular voids in secnd layer are just above the triangular voids in the first layer.
 
 
 
A simple triangular void ‘c’ which is surrounded by four spheres is called as tetrahedral void.
 
The double triangular void like 'd’ which is surrounded by six spheres is called as octahedral void.

sir in types of unit cell we studied it can be of 4 types i.e primitive, face centred, body centred and end centred, but while studing 3D close packing it was told that it can be of 3 types i,e. simple(primitive) cubic unit cell, hcp and ccp. but i am not able  to understand that hcp is a type of unit cell or it is one of the 7 crystal system or somthing else?and if it is type of unit cell then why it is not taught under the topic types of unit cell. and if it is a crystal system then what about the rest 6 crystal system, then why rest 6 crystal system does not comes under 3 dimensional close packing?
