Dimension effect on the in-depth phase transition of MnAs/GaAs(001): From a thin film to a nanorod

We explore the dimension effect on the in-depth phase transition behavior of MnAs thin films on GaAs substrate by investigating the in-depth strain distribution with experiments and simulations. The strain distribution along the film growth direction is verified to be changed when a two-dimensional...
