Fluctuations and scaling in models for particle aggregation
Daniele Vilone, Claudio Castellano, Paolo Politi
We consider two sequential models of deposition and aggregation for particles. The first model (No Diffusion) simulates surface diffusion through a deterministic capture area, whil…

Nucleation and step-edge barriers always destabilize step-flow growth of a vicinal surface
Daniele Vilone, Claudio Castellano, Paolo Politi
We consider the effect of nucleation on a one-dimensional stepped surface, finding that step-flow growth is metastable for any strength of the additional step-edge barrier. The sur…
