Kinematical Theory

In studying ion implanted semiconductors and fast neutron irradiated metals, the need for characterizing small dislocation loops having diameters of a few hundred angstrom units usually arises. The weak beam imaging method is a powerful technique for analyzing these loops. Because of the large reduction in stacking fault (SF) fringe spacing at large sg, this method allows for a rapid determination of whether the loop is faulted, and, hence, whether it is a perfect or a Frank partial loop. This method was first used by Bicknell to image small faulted loops in boron implanted silicon. He explained the fringe spacing by kinematical theory, i.e., ≃l/(Sg) in the fault fringe in depth oscillation. The fault image contrast formation mechanism is, however, really more complicated.

Diffraction Patterns

Recently, it has become essential to develop a helpful method of the complete crystallographic identification of fine fragmented crystals. This was maainly due to the investigation into structural regularity of large plastic strains. The method should be practicable for determining crystallographic orientation (CO) of elastically stressed micro areas of the order of several micron fractions in size and filled with λ>1010 cm-2 density dislocations or stacking faults. The method must provide the misorientation vectors of the adjacent fragments when the angle ω changes from 0 to 180° with the accuracy of 0,3°. The problem is that the actual electron diffraction patterns obtained from fine fragmented crystals are the superpositions of reflections from various fragments, though more than one or two reflections from a fragment are hardly possible. Finally, the method should afford fully automatic computerized processing of the experimental results.The proposed method meets all the above requirements. It implies the construction for a certain base position of the crystal the orientation matrix (0M) A, which gives a single intercorrelation between the coordinates of the unity vector in the reference coordinate system (RCS) and those of the same vector in the crystal reciprocal lattice base : .

It has long been known that defects such as stacking faults and voids can be quenched from various alloyed metals heated to near their melting point. Today it is common practice to irradiate samples with various ionic species of rare gases which also form voids containing solidified phases of the same atomic species, e.g. ref. 3. Equivalently, electron irradiation has been used to produce damage events, e.g. ref. 4. Generally all of the above mentioned studies have relied on diffraction contrast to observe the defects produced down to a dimension of perhaps 10 to 20Å. Also all these studies have used ions or electrons which exceeded the damage threshold for knockon events. In the case of higher resolution studies the present author has identified vacancy and interstitial type chain defects in ion irradiated Si and was able to identify both di-interstitial and di-vacancy chains running through the foil.

One of the major purposes in the present work is to study the high temperature sulfidation properties of Nb in severe sulfidizing environments. Kinetically, the sulfidation rate of Nb is satisfactorily slow, but the microstructures and non-stoichiometry of Nb1+αS2 challenge conventional oxidation/sulfidation theory and defect models of non-stoichiometric compounds. This challenge reflects our limited knowledge of the dependence of kinetics and atomic migration processes in solid state materials on their defect structures.Figure 1 shows a high resolution image of a platelet from the middle portion of the Nb1+αS2 scale. A thin lamellar heterogeneity (about 5nm) is observed. From X-ray diffraction results, we have shown that Nb1+αS2 scale is principally rhombohedral structure, but 2H-NbS2 can result locally due to stacking faults, because the only difference between these 2H and 3R phases is variation in the stacking sequence along the c axis. Following an ABC notation, we use capital letters A, B and C to represent the sulfur layer, and lower case letters a, b and c to refer to Nb layers. For example, the stacking sequence of 2H phase is AbACbCA, which is a ∼12Å period along the c axis; the stacking sequence of 3R phase is AbABcBCaCA to form an ∼18Å period along the c axis. Intergrowth of these two phases can take place at stacking faults or by a shear in the basal plane normal to the c axis.

The structure of stacking faults and partial dislocations in iron pyrite (FeS2) have been studied using transmission electron microscopy. Pyrite has the NaCl structure in which the sodium ions are replaced by iron and chlorine ions by covalently-bonded pairs of sulfur ions. These sulfur pairs are oriented along the <111> direction. This covalent bond between sulfur atoms is the strongest bond in pyrite with Pa3 space group symmetry. These sulfur pairs are believed to move as a whole during dislocation glide. The lattice structure across these stacking faults is of interest as the presence of these stacking faults has been preliminarily linked to a higher sulfur reactivity in pyrite. Conventional TEM contrast analysis and high resolution lattice imaging of the faulted area in the TEM specimen has been carried out.

The prospect of technical applications has induced a lot of interest in the atomic structure of the GaAs on Si(100) interface and the defects in its vicinity which are often studied by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The interface structure is determined by the 4.1% lattice constant mismatch between GaAs and Si, the large difference between the thermal expansion coefficients and the polar/nonpolar nature of the GaAs on Si interface. The lattice constant mismatch is compensated by misfit dislocations which are characterized by a/2<110> Burgers vectors b which are oriented parallel or inclined on {111} planes with respect to the interface. Stacking faults are also frequently observed. They are terminated by partial dislocations with b = a/6<112> on {111} planes. In this report, the atomic structure of stair rod misfit dislocations is analysed which are located at the intersection line of two stacking faults at the interface.A very thin, discontinous film of GaAs has been grown by MBE on a Si(100) substrate. Fig.1.a. shows an interface section of a 27 nm wide GaAs island along [110] containing a stair rod dislocation. The image has been taken with a JEOL 2000EX with a spherical aberration constant Cs = 1 mm, a spread of focus Δz = 10 nm and an angle of beam convergence ϑ of 2 mrad.

Previous studies of Y2BaCuO5/YBa2Cu3O7-δ(Y211/Y123) interfaces in melt-processed and quench-melt-growth processed YBa2Cu3O7-δ using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) have revealed a high local density of stacking faults in Y123, near the Y211/Y123 interfaces. Calculations made using simple energy considerations suggested that these stacking faults may act as effective flux-pinners and may explain the observations of increased Jc with increasing volume fraction of Y211. The present paper is intended to determine the atomic structures of the observed defects. HRTEM imaging was performed using a Philips CM30 (300 kV) TEM with a point-to-point image resolution of 2.3 Å. Nano-probe EDS analysis was performed using a Philips EM400 TEM/STEM (100 kV) equipped with a field emission gun (FEG), which generated an electron probe of less than 20 Å in diameter.Stacking faults produced by excess single Cu-O layers: Figure 1 shows a HRTEM image of a Y123 film viewed along [100] (or [010]).

A knowledge of the behaviour of dislocations in semiconducting materials is essential to the understanding of devices which use them . This work is concerned with dislocations in alloys related to the semiconductor GaAs . Previous work on GaAs has shown that microtwinning occurs on one of the <110> rosette arms after indentation in preference to the other . We have shown that the effect of replacing some of the Ga atoms by Al results in microtwinning in both of the rosette arms.In the work to be reported dislocations in specimens of different compositions of Gax Al(1-x) As and Gax In(1-x) As have been studied by using micro indentation on a (001) face at room temperature . A range of electron microscope techniques have been used to investigate the type of dislocations and stacking faults/microtwins in the rosette arms , which are parallel to the [110] and [10] , as a function of composition for both alloys . Under certain conditions microtwinning occurs in both directions . This will be discussed in terms of the dislocation mobility.
