Abstract :
The sizes of Ge island on Si(111) surface corresponding to introduction of misft dislocation were determined by modeling. The critical thickness of pseudomorphic Ge layer was demonstrated to be 2 bilayers with lateral island size exceeded 60 nm when creation of misft dislocations became energy-favorable.
