What is lattice distortion?
What is lattice distortion?
- A point defect produced when an atom is placed into the crystal at a site that is normally not a lattice point

- Imperfections, irregularities, and defects present in real crystals (correct)
- A point defect produced when an atom is removed from a regular lattice point and replaced with a different atom
