Gliding of conducting dislocations in SrTiO3 at room temperature: Why oxygen vacancies are strongly bound to the cores of dislocations

It is well known that the presence of dislocations in solids determines their mechanical properties, such as hardness and plasticity. In the prototype transition metal oxide SrTiO3, dislocations also influence the electronic properties, as they can serve as preferential sites of reduction processes,...
