Strain and correlation of self-organizedGe1xMnxnanocolumns embedded in Ge (001)

Abstract: We report on the structural properties of Ge1−xM nx layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. In these layers, nanocolumns with a high Mn content are embedded in an almost-pure Ge matrix. We have used grazing-incidence X-ray scattering, atomic force and transmission electron microscopy to study the structural properties of the columns. We demonstrate how the elastic deformation of the matrix (as calculated using atomistic simulations) around the columns, as well as the average inter-column distance can account f… Show more

“…According to our data, it was possible to determine that AA exposure through potato chips C brand did not exceed the value of Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) of AA associated with neurotoxicity effects (40 μg/kg bw/day) and cancer (2.6 μg/kg bw/day) (Tardif et al, 2010). However, the level of AA exposure through D brand potato chips exceeded 1.7-fold the TDI associated with cancer.…”

“…We have found that errors due to single precision floating point calculations were not significant in practice: indeed, most of the time structural models for which this type of computation is used are not ideal (see examples of simulated calculations using our code in Tardif et al (2010) and Favre-Nicolin et al (2010)) and therefore do not present a very large dynamic range (larger than 8 orders of magnitude).…”
