Low temperature shape relaxation of 2-d islands by edge diffusion
Nicolas Combe, Hernán Larralde
We present a precise microscopic description of the limiting step for low temperature shape relaxation of two dimensional islands in which activated diffusion of particles along th…
Kinetics of shape equilibration for two-dimensional islands
Pablo Jensen, Nicolas Combe, Hernán Larralde +3
We study the relaxation to equilibrium of two dimensional islands containing up to 20000 atoms by Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. We find that the commonly assumed relaxation mech…
Growth of three-dimensional structures by atomic deposition on surfaces containing defects : simulations and theory
Pablo Jensen, Hernán Larralde, Muriel Meunier +1
We perform a comprehensive study of the formation of three dimensional (pyramidal) structures in a large range of conditions, including the possible evaporation of adatoms from the…
The effect of monomer evaporation on a simple model of submonolayer growth
Pablo Jensen, Hernán Larralde, Alberto Pimpinelli
We present a model for thin film growth by particle deposition that takes into account the possible evaporation of the particles deposited on the surface. Our model focuses on the…
