What are defects in crystal?

The arrangement of the atoms in all materials contains imperfections which have profound effect on the behavior of the materials.
Lattice defects can be sorted into three
1. Point defects (vacancies, interstitial defects, substitution defects)
2. Line defect (screw dislocation, edge dislocation)
3. surface defects (material surface, grain boundaries)

Why defect are important?

There are a lot of properties that are controlled or affected by
defects, for example:
1. Electric and thermal conductivity in metals (strongly reduced by
point defects).
2. Electronic conductivity in semi-conductors (controlled by substitution
defects).
3. Diffusion (controlled by vacancies).
4. Ionic conductivity (controlled by vacancies).
5. Plastic deformation in crystalline materials (controlled by
dislocation).
6. Colors (affected by defects).
7. Mechanical strength (strongly depended on defects).
