Figure 10
(a) Cross sections of regular hexagon with run index i = 5, a [11] growth axis, {111} top and bottom interfaces, and {31} side interfaces. The maximum expansive morphing shown corresponds to morph indices j = k1 = k2 = −4. For atom colours, refer to Fig. 4. A smaller cross section [i = 3, even series, see König & Smith (2021)] is shown by purple atoms and the corresponding maximum expansive morphing by cyan atoms. (b) Cross section with i = 5, j = 0, k1 = −2 and k2 = −4, with magenta lines assigning interface bonds to respective facets, and green arrows and labels showing interface lengths. For an example of reductive 3-axes morphing, refer to Fig. 2(c). For a detailed geometrical derivation of characteristic lengths and areas, refer to Appendix B. |
