Structure, Energetics, and Dynamics of Screw Dislocations in Even n-Alkane Crystals

Spiral hillocks on n-alkane crystal surfaces were observed immediately after Frank recognized the importance of screw dislocations for crystal growth, yet their structures and energies in molecular crystals remain ill-defined. To illustrate the structural chemistry of screw dislocations that are res...
