1 Liu, FengEquilibrium shape of two-dimensional islands under stressWe 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; Homoepitaxy2000-08
2 Liu, FengSelf-assembly of two-dimensional islands via strain-mediated coarseningWe demonstrate two distinctive effects of strain-induced island-island interaction on island size and spatial distribution during coarsening of 2D islands. When coarsening proceeds via only mass transport between islands, the interaction broadens the island size distribution, leading to a power-law...Two-dimensional islands; Strain-mediated coarsening2001-08
