SELECTIVE ETCHING OF CESIUM IODIDE CRYSTALS

An etchant was selected for revealing dislocations in cesium iodide crystals. A good selective etchant that may be used is, for example. a 0.025% solution of CuCl/sub 2/ in methyl alcohol. Correspondence of the etch pits to dislocations is confirmed by observation of the distribution of the pits on deformation and subsequent annealing of the CsI crystals. It is found that in cesium iodide at room temperature rapid relaxation occurs immediately after deformation. (auth)
