摘要
In LPE-grown semiconductor samples the formation of self-assembled nanoscale island chains along the elastically soft <100> directions can be observed. We explain this process of self-organization by a kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode, incorporating in a self-consistent way the anisotropic strain field around the nanoscale islands.
