Key Points
- A Point Defect refers to an irregularity or imperfection localized at a single lattice point within a crystalline material.
- These defects are typically due to missing atoms (vacancies), extra atoms (interstitials), or impurity atoms substituting for host atoms.
- Point defects can significantly affect the physical properties of materials, including their electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties.
- Common types of point defects include vacancies, interstitials, and substitutional atoms.
- Point defects play a crucial role in the processes such as diffusion and ionic conductivity.
- The concentration and type of point defects can be controlled through thermal treatment and alloying.
