Question
Which of the following defects is also known as dislocation defect?
Options
Frenkel defect
Schottky defect
Non-stoichiometric defect
Simple interstitial defect

Solution
Frenkel defect
Explanation:
In Frenkel defect, some cations occupy interstitial site and hence it is also called dislocation defect.
