Characterization of lattice defects in strontium titanate single crystals by X-ray topography and transmission electron microscopy
Lattice defects in SrTiO3 single crystals were characterized by X-ray topography and transmission electron microscopy. We examined two groups of crystals whose lapped faces were (001) and (011), respectively. After taking X-ray topographs, crystals which included relatively many defects were chosen for detailed investigation by transmission electron microscopy, which gave the following results: (i) some subgrain boundaries observed by X-ray topography were small-angle tilt boundaries; and (ii) many dislocations were found in the region where thick line contrast was observed in X-ray topographs. Most of them had <100> type Burgers vectors.
