Abstract

Vapour grown ZnS and AlN crystals of wurtzite structure are studied by transmission electron microscopy. The habit plane of the ZnS crystals is 〈1120〉 and that of AIN (0001). The stacking fault energy is negative in hexagonal ZnS and positive in AlN at 20 °C so that different patterns of dislocations and stacking faults are observed in the two wurtzite structures. In ZnS stacking faults in prism planes are found which show some uncommon properties.
