We assigned the growth mechanism of anisotropic tadpole-like gold nanowires to the stable stacking faults and twinned defect formation, with Au-monomer incorporation onto the faulted-faces, resulting in a tail with a mixture of fcc/hcp phases.

ABSTRACTWe have used a Tight Binding model to calculate the surface energies of various (111) stacking faults in TiC1.0 and TiC0.5. Based upon our preliminary results we have identified the stable stacking faults and have examined possible dislocation dissociation reactions.

We carry out ab initio density functional theory calculations to investigate the fundamental mechanical properties of stacking faults in 3C-SiC, including the effect of stress and doping atoms (substitution of C by N or Si). Stress induced by stacking fault (SF) formation is quantitatively evaluated. Extrinsic SFs containing double and triple SiC layers are found to be slightly more stable than the single-layer extrinsic SF, supporting experimental observation. Effect of tensile or compressive stress on SF energies is found to be marginal. Neglecting the effect of local strain induced by doping, N doping around an SF obviously increase the SF formation energy, while SFs seem to be easily formed in Si-rich SiC.

In this work, annihilation mechanism of stacking faults (SFs) in epitaxial 3C-SiC layers grown on Si(001) substrates is studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The evolution of SFs located in...


Further experiments by transmission electron microscopy on thin sections of stainless steel deformed by small amounts have enabled extended dislocations to be observed directly. The arrangement and motion of whole and partial dislocations have been followed in detail. Many of the dislocations are found to have piled up against grain boundaries. Other observations include the formation of wide stacking faults, the interaction of dislocations with twin boundaries, and the formation of dislocations at thin edges of the foils. An estimate is made of the stacking-fault energy from a consideration of the stresses present, and the properties of the dislocations are found to be in agreement with those expected from a metal of low stacking-fault energy.

The possible role of stacking faults is discussed in some problems of glide and twinning of cubic metals, especially at low temperatures.The first part analyzes a model for the thermal variation of macroyield in b.c.c. metals. If one assumes that the dislocations of such metals split along either the (110) or the (112) planes, the screw dislocations will be sessile. The strong temperature variation of macroyield could be due to the thermally activated slip of such screws, previously developed at lower stresses during the less temperature-dependent microyield. Reasonably high stacking-fault energies are required for satisfactory numerical fits.The second part studies the influence of a dense dislocation network on the propagation of a stacking fault. The friction force acting on the partial that propagates the fault must be taken into account when deducing a stacking-fault energy from the stress at which stacking faults develop in a strongly work-hardened (f.c.c.) metal. The trails of dipoles left at each tree crossed should prevent any creation of point defects; they should lead, after the faults have propagated some length, to its multiplication into a twin or martensitic lamella. The analogies with problems of slip bauds and dipole formation in easy glide are stressed.

Continuous optimization of bulk 4H SiC PVT crystal growth processes has yielded an improvement in 150 mm wafer shape, as well as a marked reduction in stacking fault density. Mean wafer bow and warp decreased by 26% and 14%, respectively, while stacking faults were nearly eliminated from wafers produced using the refined process. These quality enhancements corresponded to an adjustment to key thermal parameters predicted to control intrinsic crystal stresses, and a reduction in crystal dome curvature.

In this study, the effects of electromigration on a solder/copper substrate due to temperature and current density stress were investigated. The copper–tin (Cu–Sn) film samples were subjected under a fixed current and various heating conditions (130 °C and 180 °C) and current densities (different cross-sectional areas). The micro-structural changes and intermetallic compound (IMC) formation were observed, and failure phenomena (brittle cracks, voids, bumps, etc.) on the structures of samples were discussed. The results showed that the IMC thickness increased as the temperature and current density increased. Moreover, it was found that the higher the temperature and current density was, the greater the defects that were observed. By adjusting the designs of sample structures, the stress from the current density can be decreased, resulting in reduced failure phenomena, such as signal delay, distortion, and short circuiting after long-term use of the material components. A detailed IMC growth mechanism and defect formation were also closely studied and discussed.
