Jj. Couderc et al., HREM OBSERVATIONS OF ION BOMBARDMENT-INDUCED DISLOCATION LOOPS IN ZNO, Microscopy microanalysis microstructures, 6(2), 1995, pp. 229-235
High resolution electron microscopy (HREM) is used to show faulted dis
location loops resulting from ion bombardment thinning in ZnO. The sta
cking faults are created by the insertion of a Zn-O double layer in th
e basal plane and are of the 1 Delta type (complex stacking fault).
