This behavior, as observed and discussed for the Tersoff potential\cite{tang95,mattoni2007}, is supported by the overestimated activation energies necessary for C diffusion as investigated in section \ref{subsection:cmob}. Indeed, it is not only the strong, hard to break C-C bond inhibiting C diffusion and further rearrangements in the case of the high C concentration simulations. This is also true for the low concentration simulations dominated by the occurrence of C$_{\text{i}}$ \hkl<1 0 0> DBs spread over the whole simulation volume, which are unable to agglomerate due to the high migration barrier. diff --git a/posic/publications/sic_prec_merge.tex b/posic/publications/sic_prec_merge.tex index 212b5e4..eed30ec 100644 --- a/posic/publications/sic_prec_merge.tex +++ b/posic/publications/sic_prec_merge.tex @@ -1048,9 +1048,10 @@ We gratefully acknowledge financial support by the Bayerische Forschungsstiftung % --------------------------------- references ------------------- -%\bibliography{../../bibdb/bibdb}{} -%\bibliographystyle{h-physrev3} +\bibliography{../../bibdb/bibdb}{} +\bibliographystyle{h-physrev3} +\ifnum1=0 \begin{thebibliography}{100} @@ -1468,5 +1469,7 @@ J.~W.
