Description:

This AFM image of a fundamental screw-dislocation-generated growth spiral in graphite which occurs on growth hillocks. Most of the step edges are 6.7 Angstroms high (graphite's unit cell height along [001]), corresponding to a "double step". Arrows point to 3.3 Angstrom steps, which correspond to a single [001] d-spacing.
