Burton-Cabrera-Frank theory for surfaces with alternating step types
Guangxu Ju, Dongwei Xu, Carol Thompson +5
Burton-Cabrera-Frank (BCF) theory has proven to be a versatile framework to relate surface morphology and dynamics during crystal growth to the underlying mechanisms of adatom diff…
Crystal Truncation Rods from Miscut Surfaces with Alternating Terminations
Guangxu Ju, Dongwei Xu, Carol Thompson +5
Miscut surfaces of layered crystals can exhibit a stair-like sequence of terraces having periodic variation in their atomic structure. For hexagonal close-packed and related crysta…
Dynamics of Atomic Steps on GaN (0001) during Vapor Phase Epitaxy
Guangxu Ju, Dongwei Xu, Carol Thompson +5
Images of the morphology of GaN (0001) surfaces often show half-unit-cell-height steps separating a sequence of terraces having alternating large and small widths. This can be expl…
In Situ Microbeam Surface X-ray Scattering Reveals Alternating Step Kinetics During Crystal Growth
Guangxu Ju, Dongwei Xu, Carol Thompson +5
The stacking sequence of hexagonal close-packed and related crystals typically results in steps on vicinal {0001} surfaces that have alternating A and B structures with different g…
Persistence of Island Arrangements During Layer-by-Layer Growth Revealed Using Coherent X-rays
Guangxu Ju, Dongwei Xu, Matthew J. Highland +7
Understanding surface dynamics during epitaxial film growth is key to growing high quality materials with controllable properties. X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) usin…
Spontaneous Repairing Liquid Metal/Si Nanocomposite as a Smart Conductive-Additive-Free Anode for Lithium-ion Battery
Bing Han, Yu Yang, Xiaobo Shi +7
Silicon is a promising candidate for negative electrodes due to its high theoretical specific capacity (~3579 mAh g-1) and low lithiation potential (~0.40 V vs Li). However, its pr…
