Stacking fault  

Definición

  • 1. In crystallography, a stacking fault is a planar defect that can occur in crystalline materials. Crystalline materials form repeating patterns of layers of atoms. Errors can occur in the sequence of these layers and are known as stacking faults. (Wikipedia). 2. A stacking fault is a planar imperfection that arises from the stacking of one atomic plane out of sequence with another while the lattice on either side of the fault is perfect.
