The fine structure in the chromosphere is probably controlled by magnetic flux concentrations which cellular convection produces in the photosphere. We will first deal with this flux concentration by the convection and its constraints. Then we will discuss the chromospheric network and its main constituent, the spicules. Following that we will look at the inside of the network, i.e. the fibrils.
