Real-time observation of nanoscale topological transitions in epitaxial PbTe/CdTe heterostructures

The almost completely immiscible PbTe/CdTe heterostructure has recently become a prototype system for self-organized quantum dot formation based on solid-state phase separation. Here, we study by real-time transmission electron microscopy the topological transformations of two-dimensional PbTe-epila...
