A computer simulation shows how columns of atoms in lithium cobalt oxide, seen end-on, ought to appear. The inset is the actual image taken with a transmission electron microscope. It shows the arrangement of lithium ions among cobalt and oxygen atoms in the compound lithium cobalt oxide. The oxygen atoms are bright and sharp-edged, the cobalt atoms are fuzzy, and the lithium atoms are small, weak...
