摘要
Deformation behaviors of monocrystalline GaAs induced by nanoscratching were investigated by means of cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. Lattice bending was observed for the first time at atomic scale in semiconductor materials. The mechanism of lattice bending was discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
