Description: The point defect is just one of the menagerie of defects (comprising dislocations, disvections, discommensurations, stacking-faults, antiphase boundaries, etc.) which affect the mechanical and other properties of all materials. The class of point defect can be further divided into interstitial, substitutional and antisite. Various combinations of these defects lead to pairings such as those of Frenkel and Shottky type. The present volume comprises a compilation of selected data concerning point defects in metals, semiconductors, carbon and carbides, nitrides, halides, oxides and miscellaneous materials including solid inert gases. Not mentioned here are Stone-Wales defects, which were covered in volume 356. The 458 entries of the present volume cover the period from 1962 to 2014.

Description: As we have known, X-ray and related techniques are mainly used for quality control and materials characterization study. Most of the equipment used in these activities has contributed a lot to the advancement of materials science, solid state physics, chemistry, medical and other fields. In recent years, there have been a lot of improvements that includes the introduction of an array of software including instrument control, data interpretation and standard data that may provide quick results with enhanced efficiency. IXCRI 2014 aims to exchange and share experiences and research findings in all aspects of X-rays and related techniques among academics, researchers and the industry. Not only that, ICXRI 2014 includes a workshop session, which allows participants to gain a hands-on experience in learning fundamental understanding on X-ray applications. Due to this unique conference-workshop combination, I strongly believe that this conference will have a huge impact and will lead to future innovations and strong linkages among the participants. This is reflected in the number of participants, which amounts to a total of nearly 100 papers being presented here in this conference.
