Interplay of Strain Relaxation and Chemically Induced Diffusion Barriers: Nanostructure Formation in 2D Alloys
T. Volkmann, F. Much, M. Biehl +1
We study the formation of nanostructures with alternating stripes composed of bulk-immiscible adsorbates during submonolayer heteroepitaxy. We evaluate the influence of two mechani…
Modeling and Simulation of Strained Heteroepitaxial Growth
Florian Much
We introduce an off-lattice model with continuous particle distances and pair-potential interactions which allows for the efficient simulation of strained heteroepitaxial growth by…
Off-lattice Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of strained heteroepitaxial growth
Michael Biehl, Florian Much, Christian Vey
An off-lattice, continuous space Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) algorithm is discussed and applied in the investigation of strained heteroepitaxial crystal growth. As a starting point,…
Off-lattice Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of Stranski-Krastanov-like growth
Michael Biehl, Florian Much
We investigate strained heteroepitaxial crystal growth in the framework of a simplifying (1+1)-dimensional model by use of off-lattice Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. Our modified…
Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations of dislocations in heteroepitaxial growth
F. Much, M. Ahr, M. Biehl +1
We determine the critical layer thickness for the appearance of misfit dislocations as a function of the misfit between the lattice constants of the substrate and the adsorbate fro…
