Fe
Substitutional
Introduced when one atom or ion is
replaced by a different type of atom or ion.
Substitutional atoms or ions occupy the
normal lattice site.
Substitutional atoms or ions may be larger
or smaller, this will disturb the crystal
structure.
Introduced by alloying process.

Frenkel Defect
Frenkel defect is a vacancy-interstitial pair
formed when an ion jumps from a normal
lattice point to an interstitial site and
leaving behind a vacancy.
Introduced by heating process.
Schottky defect
LINEAR DEFECTS
Linear defects are associated primarily
with mechanical deformation.
Linear defects are known as dislocations.
Commonly designated by the inverted T
