Sentence examples for by an atomic step from inspiring English sources

While the formation of TBs mainly causes the shape change of the templates, the presence of ISF leads to the shear of the template by an atomic step.

In contrast to TBs that cause shape change of the templates, the formation of ISF only leads to shear of the upper part of the template by an atomic step, as demonstrated by Figure 4c.

It starts on a metallic substrate with atomically flat terraces separated by single atomic steps (Fig. 2a), when there are only O atoms on the surface in the form of the 2 × 2 phase.

In Fig. 1a, we observe a typical Ru 0001) surface, exposing terraces separated mostly by single atomic steps "s" or in some cases double atomic steps "ds"; also visible are the screw dislocations "d" coming out at the surface.

These results demonstrate that by using atomic steps with artificially designed arrangement, it is possible to position and align the Ge islands on Si(111) mesas.

In this case, electron localization and resultant suppression of T c are dominated by other weaker scattering sources within the size of L ϕ, not by the atomic steps that determine Rn,res.

The scanner was calibrated by measuring atomic steps on highly orientated pyrolytic graphite in the z-axis and using a standard 1-µm calibration grid (Agilent, USA) in the xy-plane.

We propose a controlled method to modify the atomic step of an Al(111) surface with atomic precision using the tip of the scanning probe microscope by first-principles molecular static simulations.

It means that the Ge-Sn films grow by the moving atomic steps on the surface.

Owing to this fact, the Ge0.96Sn0.04 films seem to grow by the moving atomic steps at relatively low growth temperatures.

These results provide an effective pathway to solve the trade-off dilemma between dislocation nucleation and interface sliding by appropriately manipulating atomic steps at the flat interface in the design of high-strength metallic materials.
