Defect formation in 4H-SiC(0001) and (000-1) epitaxy is investigated by grazing incidence synchrotron reflection X-ray topography and transmission electron microscopy. Frank-type faults, which are terminated by four Frank partials with a 1/4[0001] type Burgers vector with the same sign on four different basal planes, are confirmed to be formed by conversion of a 1c threading edge dislocation (TSD) in the substrate as well as simultaneous generation of a 1c TSD during epitaxy. The collation between the topography appearance and the microscopic structure and the variety of Frank faults are shown. Formation of carrot defects and threading dislocation clusters are also investigated.

Rutile nano-powders were suspended in a solution of acetylacetone and iodine. The suspensions were electrophoretically deposited on titanium foil at a voltage range of 5-30 V over times of 5-120 s. The dried tapes then were sintered at 800°C for 2 h in flowing argon. Both the green and fired tapes were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman microspectroscopy. The thickness of the films depended on the voltage and the time of deposition. The sintered microstructures depended significantly on the thickness of the film, which was a function the proximity to the Ti/TiO2 interface. The interface is critical to the microstructure because it acts as the source of defect formation, which enhances sintering, grain growth, and grain facetting.

Surface defects play a crucial role in the process of crystal growth, as the incorporation of growth units generally takes place on under-coordinated sites on the growing crystal facet. In this work, we use molecular dynamics simulations to obtain information on the role of the solvent in the roughening of three morphologically-relevant crystal faces of form I of racemic ibuprofen. To this aim, we devise a computational strategy based on combining independent Well Tempered Metadynamics with Mean Force Integration. This approach enables us to evaluate the energetic cost associated with the formation of a surface vacancy for a set of ten solvents, covering a range of polarities and hydrogen-bonding ability. We find that both the mechanism of defect formation on these facets and the work associated with the process are indeed markedly solvent-dependent. The methodology developed in this work has been designed with the aim of capturing solvent effects at the atomistic scale while maintaining the computational efficiency necessary for implementation in high-throughput computational screenings of crystallization solvents.
