Question

Explain schottkys defect

Answer 1

A Schottky defect is a type of point defect in a crystal lattice named after Walter H. Schottky. In non-ionic crystals it means a lattice vacancy defect. In ionic crystals, the defect forms when oppositely charged ions leave their lattice sites, creating vacancies.

Answer 2

schottky defect is a type of point defect in crystal lattice.It consists of unoccupied anion and cation sites in a stoichiometric ratio.the vacacines that make up the schottkey defects have the positive charge.Thus they experience a mutually atractive coulumb force.
