Hematite Structural Skin

(480 views)

The chemical structure of a mineral is translated into a titling system. Further study introduces methods of connection which allows this 2D pattern to occupy the Z dimension.

Hematite is a form of Oxide that compound with Fe atoms. (Shown as preliminary pattern) The secondary pattern is the strict grid arrangement of O atoms and the shift of between two neighboring Fe atoms. read more
