| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Dislocations in oxide materials play an essential role not only in mechanical properties but also in functional properties. A dislocation has a dangling bond array at its core, and a localized strain field is induced in the vicinity of the core. As a result, the core structure of dislocations can affect various physical properties of crystals such as electrical properties, optical properties and magnetic properties. In this study, therefore, we investigated the atomic structures and electrical properties of dislocations in oxide materials by using the bicrystals with low angle tilt grain boundaries. It was found that unique electrical conductivity can be developed even in insulating oxide materials due to the characteristic dislocation structures , which accompanies with special Burgers vector.
