This document discusses various types of defects in solids, including zero-dimensional point defects like vacancies and Schottky defects, and one-dimensional line defects like edge and screw dislocations. It provides mathematical expressions for calculating the number of vacancy defects based on temperature, total number of atoms, and energy required to create a vacancy. It also describes how Schottky defects arise from missing positive and negative ions in ionic crystals. Finally, it briefly explains edge dislocations as the insertion of an extra half plane of atoms, and screw dislocations as the displacement of atoms to create a jog.
