In scientific terms, a crystal is a solid material characterized by constituents arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure known as a crystal lattice. These structures extend in all directions and are typically identifiable by their macroscopic geometrical shapes, which consist of flat faces with specific orientations. The study of these formations is known as crystallography, while the process of formation through growth or solidification is referred to as crystallization.
