  2. Vacancy defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacancy_defect

    Right circle points to a divacancy, i.e., sulfur atoms are missing both above and below the Mo layer. Other circles are single vacancies, i.e., sulfur atoms are missing only above or below the Mo layer. Scale bar: 1 nm. [1] In crystallography, a vacancy is a type of point defect in a crystal where an atom is missing from one of the lattice ...

  3. Nitrogen-vacancy center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen-vacancy_center

    Simplified atomic structure of the NV center. The nitrogen-vacancy center (N-V center or NV center) is one of numerous photoluminescent point defects in diamond.Its most explored and useful properties include its spin-dependent photoluminescence (which enables measurement of the electronic spin state using optically detected magnetic resonance), and its relatively long (millisecond) spin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kröger–Vink_Notation

    For example, the defect may result in an ion on its own ion site or a vacancy on the cation site. To complete the reactions, the proper number of each ion must be present (mass balance), an equal number of sites must exist (site balance), and the sums of the charges of the reactants and products must also be equal (charge balance).

  5. Crystallographic defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_defect

    Electron microscopy of antisites (a, Mo substitutes for S) and vacancies (b, missing S atoms) in a monolayer of molybdenum disulfide.Scale bar: 1 nm. [1]A crystallographic defect is an interruption of the regular patterns of arrangement of atoms or molecules in crystalline solids.

  6. Schottky defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schottky_defect

    A Schottky defect is an excitation of the site occupations in a crystal lattice leading to point defects named after Walter H. Schottky.In ionic crystals, this defect forms when oppositely charged ions leave their lattice sites and become incorporated for instance at the surface, creating oppositely charged vacancies.

  7. F-center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-center

    F-center in an NaCl crystal. An F-center or color center or Farbe center (from the original German Farbzentrum, where Farbe means color and zentrum means center) is a type of crystallographic defect in which an anionic vacancy in a crystal lattice is occupied by one or more unpaired electrons.

  8. Non-stoichiometric compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stoichiometric_compound

    Origin of title phenomenon in crystallographic defects. Shown is a two-dimensional slice through a primitive cubic crystal system showing the regular square array of atoms on one face (open circles, o), and with these, places where atoms are missing from a regular site to create vacancies, displaced to an adjacent acceptable space to create a Frenkel pair, or substituted by a smaller or larger ...

  9. Frenkel defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frenkel_defect

    In crystallography, a Frenkel defect is a type of point defect in crystalline solids, named after its discoverer Yakov Frenkel. [1] The defect forms when an atom or smaller ion (usually cation) leaves its place in the structure, creating a vacancy and becomes an interstitial by lodging in a nearby location. [2]
