A crystalline solid can be represented by its unit cell, which is the smallest identical unit that when stacked together produces the characteristic three-dimensional structure. Solids are characterized by an extended three-dimensional arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in which the components are generally locked into their positions. The components can be arranged in a regular repeating three-dimensional array. The smallest repeating unit of a crystal lattice is the unit cell.

Jan Erik Waider on Instagram: "»𝐆𝐞𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐜𝐞« — Lake Eibsee, Germany (2022) The strict linearity of the markings in the ice of a small pond caught my curiosity. It seemed to contradict the disordered leaves and branches of the adjacent forest. The fascinating thing is that this geometry, at an everyday scale, mirrors the order of atoms, which is a billion times smaller. Crystalline regularity links structure at the nanoscale with features at the human scale. – There are many…

Cations and anions are both ions, but they differ based on their net electrical charge; cations are positive, while anions are negative.

Developing transparent particles and imaging their positions, researchers shed light on never-before-seen interiors of crystalline structures. A team of New York University researchers has created a new way to visualize crystals by peering inside their structures, akin to having X-ray vision. The
