Fig. 5: Defect evolution in LiAl5O8.
From: Molecular dynamics study of grain boundaries as defect sinks under irradiation in LiAlO2 and LiAl5O8

The evolution of defects is quantified in terms of cation vacancies and interstitials for both lithium and aluminum in LiAl5O8. Lithium defects are analyzed in a for the bottom grain and b for the top grain, while aluminum defects are shown in c for the bottom grain and d for the top grain.
