We consider the growth of facets associated with coherently strained semiconductor islands. Surprisingly, the island growth rate is found to rapidly self-limit, which has important consequences for island size distributions. A new explanation for the elongation of strained faceted islands is proposed as a natural consequence of facet growth kinetics.
