Non-universality of front fluctuations for compact colonies of non-motile bacteria
Silvia N. Santalla, Javier Rodríguez-Laguna, José P. Abad +5
The front of a compact bacterial colony growing on a Petri dish is a paradigmatic instance of non-equilibrium fluctuations in the celebrated Eden, or Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ), uni…
Self-Organized Ordering of Nanostructures Produced by Ion-Beam Sputtering
Mario Castro, Rodolfo Cuerno, Luiz Vazquez +1
We study the self-organized ordering of nanostructures produced by ion-beam sputtering (IBS) of targets amorphizing under irradiation. By introducing a model akin to models of patt…
Universality issues in surface kinetic roughening of thin solid films
Rodolfo Cuerno, Luis Vazquez
Since publication of the main contributions on the theory of kinetic roughening more than fifteen years ago, many works have been reported on surface growth or erosion that employ…
Effects of epitaxial strain on the growth mechanism of YBa2Cu3O7-x thin films in [YBa2Cu3O7-x / PrBa2Cu3O7-x] superlattices
M. Varela, W. Grogger, D. Arias +6
We report on the growth mechanism of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO). Our study is based on the analysis of ultrathin, YBa2Cu3O7-x layers in c-axis oriented YBa2Cu3O7-x / PrBa2Cu3O7-x superlatt…
Production of ordered silicon nanocrystals by low-energy ion sputtering
Raul Gago, Luis Vazquez, Rodolfo Cuerno +3
We report on the production of ordered assemblies of silicon nanostructures by means of irradiation of a Si(100) substrate with 1.2 keV Ar ions at normal incidence. Atomic Force an…
