The most important extended defects in crystals formed by ion implantation followed by annealing are so-called {311} defects, stacking faults, and perfect dislocation loops. Table 1819 lists some examples of defects formed by ion implantation followed by annealing. During higher temperature annealing, the defects in crystals undergo a series of transitions from self-interstitial clusters to {113} defects to dislocation loops.
