Fluctuations of an Atomic Ledge Bordering a Crystalline Facet
Patrik L. Ferrari, Michael Praehofer, Herbert Spohn
When a high symmetry facet joins the rounded part of a crystal, the step line density vanishes as sqrt(r) with r denoting the distance from the facet edge. This means that the ledg…

Step fluctuations for a faceted crystal
Patrik L. Ferrari, Herbert Spohn
A statistical mechanics model for a faceted crystal is the 3D Ising model at zero temperature. It is assumed that in one octant all sites are occupied by atoms, the remaining ones…
