Abstract

The rigid body translation accompanying a ( {Mathematical expression}11) twin boundary in silicon has been studied by transmission electron microscopy. From a detailed analysis of the α-type fringe systems in the 111, 311 and 2 {Mathematical expression}0 common reflections, the following translation vector is deduced: {Mathematical expression}[011], which is equivalent to {Mathematical expression}[411] in the other crystal element. A slight deviation of this orientation is possible.
