The Nature of Crystal Defects - Formation, Structure, Analysis

This work provides a comprehensive description of all major structural defects in crystals. It shows how dislocations, grain boundaries, twins and many other influence both the structure and properties of crystals. Specifc spectroscopic and diffraction methods as well as etching procedures for characterization are described.
It is a valuable source for all scientists concerned with crystal defects analysis.
