Nano-epitaxy modeling and design: from atomistic simulations to continuum methods

The dissertation starts from the understanding of dislocation dissipation mechanism due to the image force acting on the dislocation. This work implements a screw dislocation in solids with free surfaces by a novel finite element model, and then image forces of dislocations embedded in various shape...
