MAGNETIC MOMENT OF EDGE DISLOCATION IN CRYSTALS OF SILVER AZIDE

In the present work, we continue the study of the properties of edge dislocations in whiskers crystals of silver azide. The suggested arguments do not contradict experimental results, and are in favour of the assumption of the presence of the magnetic moment and electric charge line of the edge dislocation in silver azide. It is shown that the magnetic moment in crystals of silver azide is associated with silver ions, located along the lines of dislocation, which can be neutral, i.e. have a magnetic moment. To identify the edge dislocations the methods of powder figures and selective etchingwere used; to determine the magnetic moment, a methodology was developed based on direct measurement of the magnetic field B0 and the resulting field B, that arises in the process of samples magnetization.
