Question

differniate between Schottky defect and Frenkel effect
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Schottky defect occurs in those ionic crystals where difference in size between cation and anion is small. ... In Schottky defect, both cation and anion leave the solid crystal. In Frenkel defect, only the smaller ion (cation) leaves its original lattice site; whereas, the anion remains in original lattice sites.

Hope it will help you and please folw me!!

Answer 2

Answer:

Frenkel Defect:

• Ionic solids containing large differences in the sizes of ions show this type of defect.
• When the smaller ion (usually cation) is dislocated from its normal site to an interstitial site, Frenkel defect is created.
• It creates a vacancy defect as well as an interstitial defect.
• Frenkel defect is also known as dislocation defect.
• Ionic solids such as AgCl, AgBr, AgI, and ZnS show this type of defect.  

Schottky defect:

• Schottky defect is basically a vacancy defect shown by ionic solids.
• In this defect, an equal number of cations and anions are missing to maintain electrical neutrality.
• It decreases the density of a substance.
• Significant number of Schottky defects is present in ionic solids.
• For example, in NaCl, there are approximately 106 Schottky pairs per cm3 at room temperature.
• Ionic substances containing similarsized cations and anions show this type of defect.
• For example: NaCl, KCl, CsCl, AgBr, etc.
