Two Approaches to Dislocation Nucleation in the Supported Heteroepitaxial Equilibrium Islanding Phenomenon
J. Jalkanen, O. Trushin, K. Elder +3
We study the dislocation formation in 2D nanoscopic islands with two methods, the Molecular Static method and the Phase Field Crystal method. It is found that both methods indicate…
Equilibrium Shape and Size of Supported Heteroepitaxial Nanoislands
J. Jalkanen, O. Trushin, E. Granato +2
We study the equilibrium shape, shape transitions and optimal size of strained heteroepitaxial nanoislands with a two-dimensional atomistic model using simply adjustable interatomi…
Off-Lattice Self-Learning Kinetic Monte Carlo: Application to 2D Cluster Diffusion on the fcc(111) Surface
Oleg Trushin, Handan Yildirim, Abdelkader Kara +1
We report developments of the kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) method with improved accuracy and increased versatility for the description of atomic diffusivity on metal surfaces. The on-…
