Zinc Whiskers
The bright filaments are zinc whiskers growing along a scratch in the zinc plating on the underside of a 10 year-old raised floor tile from a computer room. According to Peter Bush, consultant to the International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (www.inemi.org), there were some two million whiskers on this tile.
