Rocking chair defect generation in nanowire growth

We report the observation of a different defect generation phenomenon in layer-by-layer crystal growth. Steps at a nanowire liquid-solid growth interface, resulting from edge nucleated defects, are found to cause a gradual multiplication of stacking faults in the regions bounded by two edge defects....
