[15p-D511-8] Formation of asymmetric silicon tilt boundaries acting as dislocation sources
Keywords:aymmetric grain boundary, silicon, dislocation sources
Asymmetric tilt boundaries acting as dislocation sources, generated frequently during the cast-growth of silicon ingots, have a large unit cell structure composed of lower-order twin boundaries. We try to observe in-situ the formation process of the unit cell by high-temperature scanning transmission electron microsopy, with an artificial tilt boundary fabricated by surface activated bonding.
