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. These vacancies are formed in stoichiometric units, to maintain an overall neutral charge in the ionic solid. The surrounding atoms then move to fill these vacancies, causing new vacancies to form. Normally these defects will lead to a decrease in the density of the crystal or metal.
