Emergent grain boundary phases in stressed polycrystalline thin films
Mengyuan Wang, Ruilin Yan, Xiao Han +2
The grain boundary (GB) microstructure influences and is influenced by the development of residual stresses during synthesis of polycrystalline thin films. Recent studies have show…
Stability and energetics of 2D surface crystals in liquid AuSi thin films and nanoscale droplets
Hailong Wang, Alireza Shahabi, Alain Karma +1
Segregation at surfaces of metal-covalent binary liquids is often non-classical and in extreme cases such as AuSi, the surface crystallizes above the melting point. In this study,…
Atomistics of vapor-liquid-solid nanowire growth
Hailong Wang, Luis A. Zepeda-Ruiz, George H. Gilmer +1
Vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) route and its variants are routinely used for scalable synthesis of semiconducting nanowires yet the fundamental growth processes remain unknown. Here, we…
Topological transitions in carbon nanotube networks via nanoscale confinement
Sivasubramanian Somu, Hailong Wang, Younglae Kim +8
Efforts aimed at large-scale integration of nanoelectronic devices that exploit the superior electronic and mechanical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) remain…
Morphology of epitaxial core-shell nanowires
Hailong Wang, Moneesh Upmanyu, Cristian Ciobanu
We analyze the morphological stability against azimuthal, axial, and general helical perturbations for epitaxial core-shell nanowires in the growth regimes limited by either surfac…
