Question "Saw Tooth" leading edge

G’day All,
Just doing a little aerodynamics review and came across a reference to a “saw tooth leading edge”, used to prevent the inboard movement of a vortex on a swept wing. Could someone enlighten me on how it works, and what it looks like? What aircraft have used this design feature?
Thanks in advance,
SW
