Mandala #14 — Si: Silicio (Silicon)
Element 14 · Si · Silicio
Metallic slate blue, iridescent wafer
The semiconductor that built the digital age — diamond cubic crystals forming the transistors of civilization.
Silicon's diamond cubic crystal structure allows controlled conductivity. A single silicon wafer contains billions of transistors. Solar cells, computer chips, and glass all rely on silicon. Its iridescent surface under angled light reveals the semiconductor's interference layers.
50 Mandalas de Elementos Químicos — a sacred geometry digital art series where science and beauty converge. Each mandala's palette, pattern, and structure is inspired by the element's atomic character, crystal structure, reactivity, and visual identity.
