Generation and characterization of point defects in SrTiO3 and Y3Al5O12

Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) was applied to characterize point defects in single crystals of Y3Al5O12 and SrTiO3 after populating different types of defects by relevant thermal treatments. In SrTiO3, PALS measurements identified Sr vacancy, Ti vacancy, vacancy complexes of Ti–O...
