• ID Code: I7-08
  • Purpose: Visualization of a crystal fault within a simple crystal structure.
  • Description: A monolayer of BBs sandwiched between two glass plates forms this crystal model. When it is moved around and/or oriented vertically the BBs form a "crystal" arrray with a hexagonal structure and lots of "faults," as seen in the photograph.
