Whisker junctions between growth structures on CdS layers

Individual growth structures on CdS layers obtained by evaporation on mica substrates in vacuum were found to be joined by a single whisker producing an overall bridge-like structure. More complex whisker-platelet-whisker configurations joining the growth structures were also observed. The phenomeno...

Description
Summary:Individual growth structures on CdS layers obtained by evaporation on mica substrates in vacuum were found to be joined by a single whisker producing an overall bridge-like structure. More complex whisker-platelet-whisker configurations joining the growth structures were also observed. The phenomenon is discussed in terms of the diffusion-dislocation mechanism of whisker growth, and the effects of these formations on the local parameters of the layer are briefly considered.-
