Abstract

A model for illustrating movements of atoms in solids was exhibited at the 1972 Labware exhibition and was described as a 'major development in educational instruction by the exhibition judges. The author describes the model, which has been found useful in demonstrating ideas of atomic collisions to undergraduates and MSc students at Sussex University. The model gives a good indication of the kinds of movement made by individual atoms in one plane of a cubic crystal lattice. It demonstrates the effects of a single incident moving atom upon atoms adjacent to its path through the crystal.
