Lecture 15
Recap
IIT Delhi
Thermodynamics and kinetics
Concept of stability and metastability
Ideal crystals
Real crystals
Real materials are made of real crystals
Otherwise they are not in equilibrium and would like to get out
from the crystal
Important observation
IIT Delhi

crystals Schottky defect
Imperfect point-like regions in the crystal about the size of 1-2 atomic diameters
Vacancy
IIT Delhi
Missing atom from an atomic site
Atoms around the vacancy displaced
Tensile stress field produced in the vicinity
Substitutional
Schottky defect
Pair of anion and cation vacancies
E.g. Alkali halides
NaCl, CaCl2
Frenkel defect
Cation being smaller get displaced to interstitial voids
E.g. AgCl, AgI, CaF2
Near MP Ag interstitial concentration 10-3
