Abstract

Atomic-level events in the semiconductor material CdTe have been documented directly with real-time video recording, using a high resolution transmission electron microscope equipped with an image pick-up and display system. Among the various solid-state reactions observed were dislocation motion by slip, dislocation climb by diffusion and the annealing of several types of defects.
