For each dimension, 0D, 1D, and 2D, list and describe at least one defect.
Defects in 0D : Point defects which means vacancies and interstitials. For example : Impurities
Vacancy is a lattice position that is vacant because atom is missing. This generally happens during the formation of solids or by thermal vibrations.
Interstitials when thw atom occupies the place outside the normal lattice position.Caused by impurities.
Defects in 1D: Linear Defects which means dislocations
Abrupt change in regular odering of atoms along a line.
Defects in 2D: Grain boundaries, surfaces
