RSA Study of Dimers

Abstract

The first theoretical study of a dimer's adsorption process at homogenous surface is presented. By using the RSA algorithm, we show example monolayers, discuss estimations of random jamming coverage and measure the surface blocking function, which could be used for calculating real systems kinetics. We also found the correlation function for generated coverages and analyzed orientational ordering inside the adsorbed monolayer. Results were compared with theoretical and experimental data. Keywords: adsorption, RSA, monolayer, colloid particles
