Fluctuations of an atomic ledge bordering a crystalline facet.
When a high symmetry facet joins the rounded part of a crystal, the step line density vanishes as square root of r with r denoting the distance from the facet edge. This means that the ledge bordering the facet has a lot of space to meander as caused by thermal activation. We investigate the statistical properties of the border ledge fluctuations. In the scaling regime they turn out to be non-G...
متن کاملRecordings and Analysis of Atomic Ledge and Dislocation Movements in InGaAs to Nickelide Nanowire Phase Transformation.
The formation of low resistance and self-aligned contacts with thermally stable alloyed phases is a prerequisite for realizing reliable functionality in ultrascaled semiconductor transistors. Detailed structural analysis of the phase transformation accompanying contact alloying can facilitate contact engineering as transistor channels approach a few atoms across. Original in situ heating transm...
متن کاملAtomic Transport in Nano-crystalline Thin Films
Ge and B diffusion was studied in nano-crystalline Si, and Pd and Si self-diffusion was studied in nano-crystalline Pd2Si during and after Pd/Si reactive diffusion. These experiments showed that grain boundary (GB) diffusion kinetic is the same in microand nano-GBs, whereas triple junction (TJ) diffusion is several orders of magnitude faster than GB diffusion. In addition, GB segregation and GB...
متن کاملSingle‐Crystalline Rhodium Nanosheets with Atomic Thickness
CO confinement strategy for ultrathin Rh nanosheets: CO is introduced as a confining agent to regulate the anisotropic growth of unique 2D structure. The single-crystalline Rh nanosheets have a thickness of three to five atomic layers and tunable edge length ranging from 500 to 1300 nm. By understanding the formation mechanism, surface-clean Rh nanosheets are also prepared and display better ca...
متن کاملProbing fluctuations in a lattice of mesoscopic atomic ensembles
We experimentally probe intrinsic atom number fluctuations in trapped ensembles of ultracold atoms on a magnetic lattice atom chip. Advanced post-processing and optimal analysis techniques allow the detection of intrinsic fluctuations in the number of atoms in small atomic ensembles with absorption imaging. A fringe removal algorithm reduces imaging noise to the fundamental photon shot noise li...
