Twins and dislocations in SnO2whiskers

Abstract
Twins and dislocations in SnO2 whiskers with the rutile structure, grown by oxidizing metallic tin, have been investigated by optical microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Two types of mirror twins have been found: one with the twinning plane (301) and the other with (121). Grown-in dislocations have been shown to have the Burgers vector either of [001] or 〈101〉 type.
