Sliding Octahedra
Sliding Octahedra
Octahedra placed side by side with matching tetrahedra (represented here by the voids among the octahedra) form a space-filling configuration, which may be used to explain the arrangement of atoms in various minerals. The octahedra can be shifted relative to each other while maintaining facial contact.
