Chicken wire (chemistry)

In chemistry, "chicken wire" typically does not refer to a specific chemical substance, but it may be used informally to describe the appearance of certain molecular structures that resemble a mesh or lattice arrangement, similar to the physical chicken wire used in fencing. For example, in the context of crystallography or molecular structures, a "chicken wire" pattern may describe the arrangement of atoms in certain materials where the connectivity resembles a network of interconnected points, often seen in two-dimensional materials or polymers.
