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 ...
An F center is ionized and becomes a vacancy; the electron moves through the material to bind to another F center, which becomes an F − center. The electron vacancy moves through the material and ends up next to the F − center, which gives its electron back to the vacancy, forming two neighbouring F centers, i.e. an F 2 center.
In mechanical engineering and materials science, a notch refers to a V-shaped, U-shaped, or semi-circular defect deliberately introduced into a planar material. In structural components, a notch causes a stress concentration which can result in the initiation and growth of fatigue cracks.
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).
The 16 Divisions of construction, as defined by the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI)'s MasterFormat, is the most widely used standard for organizing specifications and other written information for commercial and institutional building projects in the U.S. and Canada.
Thus e.g. an O atom with only one Si bond (a dangling bond) can be considered a defect in silica. [8] Moreover, defects can also be defined in amorphous solids based on empty or densely packed local atomic neighbourhoods, and the properties of such 'defects' can be shown to be similar to normal vacancies and interstitials in crystals.

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]
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 .
