چکیده

An atomistic model of the growth kinetics of stressed solid-solid phase transformations is presented. Solid phase epitaxial growth of (001) Si was used for comparison of new and prior models with experiments. The results indicate that the migration of crystal island ledges in the growth interface may involve coordinated atomic motion. The model accounts for morphological instabilities during stressed solid-solid phase transformations.

Stressed solid-phase epitaxial growth of (011) Si

The solid-phase epitaxial growth kinetics of amorphized (011) Si with application of in-plane 2 11 1⁄2 uniaxial stress to magnitude of 0.9 0.1 GPa were studied. Tensile stresses did not appreciably change the growth velocity compared with the stress-free case, whereas compression tended to retard the growth velocity to approximately one-half the stress-free value. The results are explained usin...

Stressed solid-phase epitaxial growth of ion-implanted amorphous silicon

The kinetics of stressed solid-phase epitaxial growth (SPEG), also referred to as solid-phase epitaxy, solidphase epitaxial regrowth, solid-phase epitaxial recrystallization, and solid-phase epitaxial crystallization, of amorphous (a) silicon (Si) created via ion-implantation are reviewed. The effects of hydrostatic, in-plane uniaxial, and normal uniaxial compressive stress on SPEG kinetics are...

Current-induced stabilization of surface morphology in stressed solids.

We examine the surface morphological evolution of a conducting crystalline solid under the simultaneous action of an electric field and mechanical stress based on a fully nonlinear model and combining linear stability theory with self-consistent dynamical simulations. We demonstrate that electric current, through surface electromigration, can stabilize the surface morphology of the stressed sol...

Simulation of morphological instabilities during diamond chemical vapor deposition

The diamond chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process has been investigated theoretically and the morphological instabilities associated with the growth of diamond films have been examined with a model based on the continuum species conservation equation coupled to surface reaction kinetics. A linear stability analysis and numerical calculations have been carried out to determine critical paramet...

Atomistic considerations of stressed epitaxial growth from the solid phase

A dual-timescale model of stressed solid-phase epitaxial growth is developed to provide a basis for the atomistic interpretation of experiments where the macroscopic growth velocity of (0 0 1) Si was studied as a function of uniaxial stress applied in the plane of the growth interface. The model builds upon prior empirical modeling, but is a significant improvement as it provides solid physical...
