Optimal Growth Conditions for Selective Ge Islands Positioning on Pit-Patterned Si(001)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>We investigate ordered nucleation of Ge islands on pit-patterned Si(001) using an original hybrid Kinetic Monte Carlo model. The method allows us to explore long time-scale evolution while using large simulation cells. We analyze the possibility to achieve select...
