Convective instability on a crystal surface
Navot Israeli, Daniel Kandel, Michael F. Schatz +1
The distinction between absolute and convective instabilities is well known in the context of hydrodynamics and plasma physics. In this Letter, we examine an epitaxial crystal grow…

Thickness evolution of coercivity in ultrathin magnetic films
R. A. Hyman, A. Zangwill, M. D. Stiles
The thickness evolution of in-plane magnetization reversal in ultrathin films is studied with a theoretical model that takes account of surface roughness typical of epitaxial growt…
