Abstract
DISLOCATION networks generated in alkali halide crystals when subjected to mechanical strain have been rendered visible by ‘decoration’ with colloidal aggregations of colour centres1 and with silver2. Amelinckx et al. 3 obtained micromosaic patterns in sodium chloride crystals containing sodium or barium chloride and Hedges and Mitchell4 in silver bromide containing excess silver.
