Abstract
A point defect complex in silver chloride consisting of a trivalent ir on ion in a cube-centre interstitial site, tetrahedrally coordinated w ith four silver vacancies and four halogen ions, was previously detect ed by EPR. In this article we present evidence, obtained by perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy, for a similar defect complex for In3 + in AgCl and AgBr. We present data establishing the existence of this negatively-charged complex, describe its behaviour, and consider why a negatively-charged complex forms.
