Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>The effect of stress on the formation energy of H‐platelets was studied through a 3D model based on elastic interaction by modelling the platelets as dislocation loops. A difference of self‐formation energy between {111} and {100} platelets was estimated by comparing the calculations with experimental results. When a local source of stress is added to the implantation‐induced stress, different types of platelets could form according to the symmetry of the local stress field. Besides, their arrangement at a nanometre scale makes specific architecture depending on the crystallographic orientation of the surface, 〈001〉‐, 〈011〉‐, or 〈111〉‐orientation.
