Influence of external magnetic fields on growth of alloy nanoclusters

Mario Einax, Stefan Heinrichs, Philipp Maass +2

Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations are performed to study the influence of external magnetic fields on the growth of magnetic fcc binary alloy nanoclusters with perpendicular magnetic…

Epitaxial growth of binary alloy nanostructures

S. Heinrichs, W. Dieterich, P. Maass

Stochastic growth of binary alloys on a weakly interacting substrate is studied by kinetic Monte Carlo simulation. The underlying lattice model relates to fcc alloys, and the kinet…

Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in nanoclusters caused by surface segregation and shape

Stefan Heinrichs, Wolfgang Dieterich, Philipp Maass

The growth of binary alloy clusters on a weakly interacting substrate through codeposition of two atomic species is studied by kinetic Monte Carlo simulation. Our model describes s…

Static and Time Dependent Density Functional Theory with Internal Degrees of Freedom: Merits and Limitations Demonstrated for the Potts Model

S. Heinrichs, W. Dieterich, P. Maass +1

We present an extension of the density-functional theory (DFT) formalism for lattice gases to systems with internal degrees of freedom. In order to test approximations commonly use…

Influence of adatom interactions on second layer nucleation

S. Heinrichs, P. Maass

We develop a theory for the inclusion of adatom interactions in second layer nucleation occurring in epitaxial growth. The interactions considered are due to ring barriers between…

Nucleation on top of islands in epitaxial growth

S. Heinrichs, J. Rottler, Ph. Maass

We develop a theory for nucleation on top of islands in epitaxial growth based on the derivation of lifetimes and rates governing individual microscopic processes. These processes…
