Nickel dendrites, SEM C016 / 8037
Nickel dendrites. Coloured stereoscopic scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of nickel dendrites (blue) on copper foil. A dendrite, in metallurgy, is a characteristic tree-like structure of crystals that grows as molten metal freezes. Nickel dendrites on copper foil are commonly used in mobile phone batteries. Magnification: x7463, when printed 10 centimetres high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of nickel dendrites, captured through a coloured stereoscopic scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals a mesmerizing tree-like structure formed by crystallized nickel on copper foil. Dendrites are characteristic formations that emerge as molten metal solidifies in metallurgy. Nickel dendrites play a crucial role in various technological applications, particularly in mobile phone batteries. Their presence within these batteries enhances their performance and longevity. This high-resolution photograph, magnified at an astonishing x7463 and printed 10 centimeters tall, allows us to appreciate the detailed complexity of this metallic crystal structure. The vibrant blue hue of the nickel dendrites against the backdrop of copper foil adds to its visual allure. It is fascinating to observe how chemistry and mineralogy converge to create such exquisite structures in our everyday technology. Thanks to advancements in scanning electron microscopy, we can now delve into the microscopic world and witness nature's artistry at its finest. This image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and scientific exploration, providing valuable insights into materials science and metallurgical processes. Stefan Diller's remarkable capture invites us into this hidden realm where crystals intertwine with technology, reminding us of the boundless wonders that lie beneath our sight.
