Ionic CrystalsIonic Crystals
Ionic crystals make up a large and important class of substances found in every walk of life that constitute a robust area of cutting edge research

Solid VoidsSolid Voids
To grasp the structure of metals and ionic compounds, you must account for the solid voids. As atoms occupy lattice points, they create a pattern of empty spaces between
