Materials Science Materials Science, Multidisciplinary Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Applied Science & Technology Science & Technology - Other Topics Technology
We simulate the guided-assembled heteroepitaxial growth of quantum dot arrays on an imperfectly pre-patterned substrate, revealing the existence of different growth regimes, such as defect tolerant regimes and defect sensitive and responsive regimes. These regimes can potentially be used to grow different designed surface patterns.
