Etymology

From tri- + vacancy.

Meanings

1. A group of three vacancy defects in a crystal.
   • To further investigate how the clustering of vacancies influences the mechanical properties, the most stable configurations of di- and trivacancy clusters have been predicted, which correspond to the most compact distribution of vacancies. 2016, Xueyan Zhu, Xingyu Gao, Haifeng Song, Guomin Han, De-Ye Lin, “Effect of vacancies on the mechanical properties of zirconium: An ab initio investigation”, in arXiv:
