What is meant by octahedral void in a close-packed structure?
If a triangular void pointing up in one close-packed layer is covered by a triangular void pointing down in the adjacent layer, then a void surrounded by six spheres results Such a void is called an octahedral void since the six spheres surrounding it lie at the corners of a regular octahedron.
