Strain release by 3D atomic misfit in fivefold twinned icosahedral nanoparticles with amorphization and dislocations

Abstract Multiple twinning to form fivefold twinned nanoparticles in crystal growth is common and has attracted broad attention ranging from crystallography research to physical chemistry and materials science. Lattice-misfit strain and defects in multiple twinned nanoparticles (MTP) are key to unde...
