1 | Liu, Feng | Equilibrium shape of two-dimensional islands under stress | We show that the equilibrium shape anisotropy of two-dimensional islands in heteroepitaxial growth depends on island size, a consequence of the presence of strain. Even in homoepitaxy, in which the island shape has conventionally been equated with the ratio of step energies, a substrate surface str... | Two-dimensional islands; Equilibrium shape; Heteroepitaxial growth; Homoepitaxy | 2000-08 |
