Competing relaxation mechanisms in strained layers
J Tersoff, FK LeGoues - Physical review letters, 1994 - APS
We show that strained epitaxial layers can relax by two competing mechanisms. At large
misfit, the surface becomes rough, allowing easy nucleation of dislocations. However, strain …

Nanoparticle shape, thermodynamics and kinetics
Nanoparticles can be beautiful, as in stained glass windows, or they can be ugly as in wear
and corrosion debris from implants. We estimate that there will be about 70 000 papers in …
