A linear scaling DFT study of the growth of a new \{105\} facet layer on a Ge hut cluster

Sergiu Arapan, David R. Bowler, Tsuyoshi Miyazaki

Ge hut clusters, which appear during heteroepitaxy of Ge on Si(001), are prototypical examples of islands formed through strain. Experimentally, complete facets are observed to for…
