Analytical elastoplastic analysis of heteroepitaxial core-shell nanowires

Semiconductor nanowires, grown heteroepitaxially, have many unique properties compared to heteroepitaxial thin films: e.g., the possibility of lateral relaxation, high surface to volume ratio and lower strain energy. While the onset of plastic deformation in flat thin films has been studied extensiv...
