In order to express the defects in solids different notations were proposed. SCHOTTKY [1] has introduced the first notation which is an absolute one. KRÖGER and VINK [2–4] developed a different notation which becomes generally accepted and denote structural elements on real sites compared with the normal occupied sites (Table 1).
