We examine a possible mechanism for the formation of protrusions on a metallic surface held in a sufficiently high electric field in the presence of a near-surface void. By means of molecular dynamics simulations we show that the high tensile stress exerted on a Cu f110g surface with a near-surface void can promote the nucleation of dislocations on…
