Q. Schottky defect defines imperfection in the lattice structure of a

AIIMSAIIMS 2002The Solid State

Solution:

Schottky defect - If some of the lattice points are unoccupied, called vacancies or holes, the lattice becomes defective. Equal number of cations and anions usually absent so that the crystal remains neutral.
