Nanoparticle shape, thermodynamics and kinetics

LD Marks, L Peng - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

Self-organization of nanostructures in semiconductor heteroepitaxy

C Teichert - Physics Reports, 2002 - Elsevier
In semiconductor heteroepitaxy the growing film frequently undergoes a series of strain relief
mechanisms that may include surface reconstruction, step bunching, faceting, and finally …

Multiphase transformation and Ostwald's rule of stages during crystallization of a metal phosphate

SY Chung, YM Kim, JG Kim, YJ Kim - Nature physics, 2009 - nature.com
Although the classical picture of crystallization depicts a simple and immediate
transformation from an amorphous to a crystalline phase, it has been argued that, in …

Fundamental processes in Si/Si and Ge/Si epitaxy studied by scanning tunneling microscopy during growth

B Voigtländer - Surface Science Reports, 2001 - Elsevier
