Crossover from BKT-Rough to KPZ-Rough Surfaces for Interface-Limited Crystal Growth/Recession
Noriko Akutsu
The crossover from a Berezinskii--Kosterlitz--Thouless (BKT) rough surface to a Kardar--Parisi--Zhang (KPZ) rough surface on a vicinal surface is studied using the Monte Carlo meth…
Relationship Between Macrostep Height and Surface Velocity for a Reaction-Limited Crystal Growth Process
Noriko Akutsu
This work examined the effect of macrostep height on the growth velocity of a vicinal surface during reaction- (interface-) limited crystal growth under non-equilibrium steady stat…
Height of a faceted macrostep for sticky steps in a step-faceting zone
Noriko Akutsu
The driving force dependence of the surface velocity and the average height of faceted merged steps, the terrace-surface-slope, and the elementary step velocity in the non-equilibr…
Time Scaling Relations for Step Bunches from Models with Step-Step Attractions (B1-Type Models)
Anna Krasteva, Noriko Akutsu, Vesselin Tonchev
The step bunching instability is studied in three models of step motion defined in terms of ordinary differential equations (ODE). The source of instability in these models is step…
Phase diagram of step faceting for sticky steps
Noriko Akutsu
A phase diagram for the step faceting phase, the step droplet phase, and the Gruber-Mullins-Pokrovsky-Talapov (GMPT) phase on a crystal surface is obtained by calculating the surfa…
Sticky steps inhibit step motions near equilibrium
Noriko Akutsu
Using a Monte Carlo method on a lattice model of a vicinal surface with short-range step-step attraction, we show that, at low temperature and near equilibrium, there is an inhibit…
