crystalline defect
1Crystalline silicon — is a material consisting of one or more small silicon crystals. Polycrystalline silicon Polycrystalline silicon (or polysilicon, poly Si, or simply poly in context) is a material consisting of multiple small silicon crystals.Polycrystalline… …
2Crystallographic defect — Crystalline solids exhibit a periodic crystal structure. The positions of atoms or molecules occur on repeating fixed distances, determined by the unit cell parameters. However, the arrangement of atom or molecules in most crystalline materials… …
3Topological defect — Also see base concepts: topology, differential equations, quantum theory condensed matter physics .In mathematics and physics, a topological soliton or a topological defect is a solution of a system of partial differential equations or of a… …
4crystal defect — Crystall. defect (def. 3). * * * ▪ crystallography imperfection in the regular geometrical arrangement of the atoms in a crystalline solid. These imperfections result from deformation of the solid, rapid cooling from high temperature, or… …
5Latent image — A latent image on photographic film is an invisible image produced by the exposure of the film to light. When the film is developed, the area that was exposed darkens and forms a visible image. In the early days of photography, the nature of the… …
6Silver halide — A silver halide is one of the compounds formed between silver and one of the halogens mdash; silver bromide (AgBr), chloride (AgCl), iodide (AgI), and two forms of silver fluorides. As a group, they are often referred to as the silver halides,… …
7Sensitivity speck — A sensitivity speck is a place in silver halide crystal where latent image is preferentially formed. This is very often the site of shallow electron traps, such as crystalline defect (particularly edge dislocation) and silver sulfide specks… …
8dislocation — a linear crystalline defect around which there is atomic misalignment; plastic deformation corresponds to the motion of dislocations in response to an applied shear stress; edge, screw, and mixed dislocations are possible. The movement of… …
9edge dislocation — a linear crystalline defect associated with the lattice distortion produced in the vicinity of the end of an extra half plane of atoms within a crystal; the Burgers vector is perpendicular to the dislocation line …
10Crystallinity — Crystalline redirects here. It is not to be confused with Crystallin. For the song by Björk, see Crystalline (song). Crystallinity refers to the degree of structural order in a solid. In a crystal, the atoms or molecules are arranged in a regular …
