Spontaneous Ordering of Arrays of Coherent Strained Islands
Abstract
The energetics of an array of three-dimensional coherent strained islands on a lattice-mismatched substrate is studied. The contribution of the edges of islands to the elastic relaxation energy always has a minimum as a function of the size of an island $L$, and the total energy $E(L)$ may have a minimum at an optimum size ${L}_{\mathrm{opt}}$. Among different arrays of islands on the (001) surface of a cubic crystal, the total energy is minimum for the 2D periodic square lattice with primitive lattice vectors along ``soft'' directions [100] and [010]. This is a stable array of islands which do not undergo ripening.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
