  2. Pole figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_figure

    Consider the (x,y) plane of the reference basis; its trace on the sphere is the equator of the sphere. We draw a line joining the South pole with the pole of interest P. It is possible to choose any projection plane parallel to the equator (except the South pole): the figures will be proportional (property of similar triangles). It is usual to ...

  3. Stacking fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking_fault

    In a TEM, bright field imaging is one technique used to identify the location of stacking faults. Typical image of stacking fault is dark with bright fringes near a low-angle grain boundary, sandwiched by dislocations at the end of the stacking fault. Fringes indicate that the stacking fault is at an incline with respect to the viewing plane. [3]

  4. Charge transport mechanisms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_transport_mechanisms

    Characterization of transport properties requires fabricating a device and measuring its current-voltage characteristics. Devices for transport studies are typically fabricated by thin film deposition or break junctions. The dominant transport mechanism in a measured device can be determined by differential conductance analysis.

  5. Glossary of engineering: A–L - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_engineering:_A–L

    Nuclear chemistry is a sub-discipline of chemistry that involves the chemical reactions of unstable and radioactive elements where both electronic and nuclear changes can occur. Chemistry is the scientific discipline involved with elements and compounds composed of atoms , molecules and ions : their composition, structure, properties, behavior ...

  6. Chemical transport reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_transport_reaction

    Transport reactions are classified according to the thermodynamics of the reaction between the solid and the transporting agent. When the reaction is exothermic, then the solid of interest is transported from the cooler end (which can be quite hot) of the reactor to a hot end, where the equilibrium constant is less favorable and the crystals grow.

  7. Crystallography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallography

    Miller indices in parentheses such as (100) denote a plane of the crystal structure, and regular repetitions of that plane with a particular spacing. In the cubic system, the normal to the (hkl) plane is the direction [hkl], but in lower-symmetry cases, the normal to (hkl) is not parallel to [hkl].

  8. Boltzmann equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_equation

    The classic example of such a system is a fluid with temperature gradients in space causing heat to flow from hotter regions to colder ones, by the random but biased transport of the particles making up that fluid. In the modern literature the term Boltzmann equation is often used in a more general sense, referring to any kinetic equation that ...

  9. Plane of polarization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_of_polarization

    That plane, which became known as the plane of vibration, is perpendicular to Fresnel's "plane of polarization" but identical with the plane that modern writers tend to call by that name! It has been argued that the term plane of polarization , because of its historical ambiguity, should be avoided in original writing.
