Relaxation of Terrace-width Distributions: Physical Information from Fokker-Planck Time
Ajmi BH. Hamouda, Alberto Pimpinelli, T. L. Einstein
Recently some of us have constructed a Fokker-Planck formalism to describe the equilibration of the terrace-width distribution of a vicinal surface from an arbitrary initial config…

Capture-zone scaling in island nucleation: phenomenological theory of an example of universal fluctuation behavior
Alberto Pimpinelli, T. L. Einstein
In studies of island nucleation and growth, the distribution of capture zones, essentially proximity cells, can give more insight than island-size distributions. In contrast to the…
