• A Burgers vector is specified by giving its components along the axes of the crystallographic structure cell.

• Thus, the Burgers vector for slip in a cubic lattice from a cube corner to the center of one face has the components

(see Figure 11-7)

• The Burgers vector is , or generally written as .

• The magnitude of a dislocation with Burgers vector is given as:
