Simple cubic refers to one of the basic types of crystal structures where atoms are arranged in a cube with one atom at each corner of the cube. This structure is characterized by having a coordination number of 6, meaning each atom is in contact with six others, which creates a straightforward and symmetrical arrangement. Simple cubic lattices are fundamental in understanding more complex crystal systems and play a significant role in the study of materials science and solid-state physics.
