An epitaxial film is deposited with a lattice mismatch of 2%
relative to a substrate whose
diameter is 10 cm. The epilayer grown at elevated temperature is
thick enough that the residual
strain is zero.
(a) If the Burgers vector is 2Å, what is the spacing between
interfacial misfit-dislocations?
(b) A misfit dislocation grid covers the entire film/substrate
interface. What is the total
length of the dislocation line?
(c) Estimate the dislocation density.
