The phrase "a single defect" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to one specific flaw or imperfection in an object, process, or system.
Example: "The product was recalled due to a single defect that could pose a safety risk to consumers."
Alternatives: "one flaw" or "a solitary imperfection."
the problem with these structures is they are not optically tolerant to even a single defect.
We show coherent control of a single defect spin and find long spin coherence times under ambient conditions.
As a result, a single defect in execution could lead to disastrous consequences.
GaAs/Si multilayer structure with a single defect has been simulated using transfer matrix method.
Take the perfect woman, Elsie Scheel, in whose "physical makeup there is not a single defect," the Times article said.
Two genes are synthetically lethal (SL) when defects in both are lethal to a cell but a single defect is non-lethal.
The treatments were grouped according to whether the defect was from a single-defect knee (Fig. 2, circle 1), if the defect was the proximal defect of double-defect knees (Fig. 2, circle 2) or if the defect was the distal defect of double-defect knees (Fig. 2, circle 3).
Neither a chromosomal defect nor a single gene defect has been identified as the underlying cause.
Isolated defects were defined as those having a single major defect alone or together with one or more of a list of minor defects used in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study [ 19].
Under this condition, depth and width data of the defect cannot be effectively extracted, which means that the conventional LSI system is limited to detection of the single defect with a very small dimension.
Despite the complexities of this clinical picture, the pathophysiological defects underlying T2DM can be attributed in large part to a single core defect, that is, inappropriate resistance to the biologic effects of insulin [ 1, 2].
