The elastic problem of a spherical core-shell particle with a truncated core is solved within the isotropic classical theory of elasticity. A transition to a Janus particle consisting of two unequal spherical segments with lattice mismatch is demonstrated. Elastic fields in the Janus particle are found and described in detail. The strain energy of the Janus particle in dependence on the interface coordinate is discussed. |
