Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of the work presented in this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of how the growth conditions may affect the surface morphology during deposition. In thin film growth physical processes in a very wide range of time and length scales are relevant. A set of quite different methods of modeling is required when aiming at a more or less complete realistic picture of the growth process. Accordingly, both computer simulations/modeling and analytic calculations were employed in our studies of thin film growth. In particular, a hybrid multi-scale model, which combines a kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation for the thermal surface diffusion with a Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation of deposition events, was developed and successfully employed to study Cu/Cu(100) growth at a range of substrate temperatures and deposition angles. Predictive capabilities of this model allowed us to explain a number of puzzling experimental observations. Another accomplishment presented in this thesis is an analytic calculation of the surface current and selected mound angle for the case of epitaxial growth on fcc(111) surface. The results of this calculation help to understand the morphologies observed experimentally for a wide range of systems and deposition conditions.

This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physics of surface and interface is an increasingly important area in the field of condensed matter physics. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the kinetic Monte Carlo simulation for the submonolayer crystal growth phenomenon. The growth from vapor is studied under the condition meet in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). It describes the basic physical processes, such as atomic process during growth, formulation of growth models, and surface diffusion and nucleation theory. It covers the effect of small-cluster mobility and adatom detachment on the island formation during the submonolayer epitaxial growth of the thin films deposition under the various conditions. This book may be useful for the undergraduates, graduate students and researchers in the field of surface and interface physics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A diverse set of materials science communities come together in this volume to review the extraordinary progress made in the development of computer simulation and modeling techniques for the prediction of film morphology, microstructure, composition, profile and structure. These techniques are rapidly moving out of the area of academic research and into technological and production design areas of thin-film-based industries. The book is loosely organized in ascending order of modeling-length scales - from atomic, up to the entire deposition reactor. Topics include: deposition and growth modeling; film morphology and topology; film microstructure; failure mechanisms; etching; process modeling and control and reactor-scale modeling.

Download or read book Monte Carlo Simulation of Epitaxial Growth written by Celso I. Fornari and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A numerical Monte Carlo (MC) model is described in detail to simulate epitaxial growth. This model allows the formation of structural defects, like substitutional defects and vacancies, and desorption of adsorbed atoms on the surface. The latter feature supports the study of epitaxial growth at very high kinetic regime. The model proposed here is applied to simulate the homoepitaxial growth of Si. The results obtained fit well to the experimental reports on (0 0 1) silicon homoepitaxy. The easy implementation of a large number of microscopic processes and the three-dimensional spatial information during the film growth suggests that the model can be applied to simulate the growth of binary, ternary, or more compounds and even the growth of superlattices and heterostructures.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of the work presented in this thesis is to develop new methods to extend the time and length scales of atomistic kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations. When all the relevant processes and their activation barriers are known, KMC is an extremely efficient method to carry out atomistic simulations for longer time scales. However, in some cases (ex. low barrier repetitive events) direct KMC simulations may not be sufficient to reach the experimentally relevant length and time scales. Accordingly, we have tested and developed several different parallel KMC algorithms and also developed a dynamic boundary allocation (DBA) method to improve parallel efficiency by reducing number of boundary events. Results for parallel KMC simulations of Ag(111) island coarsening at room temperature carried out using a large database of processes obtained from previous self-learning KMC simulations are also presented. We find that at long times the coarsening behavior corresponds to Ostwald ripening. We also find that the inclusion of concerted small-cluster events has a significant impact on the average island size. In addition, we have also developed a first passage time (FPT) approach to KMC simulations to accelerate KMC simulation of (100) multilayer epitaxial growth with rapid edge diffusion. In our FPT approach, by mapping edge-diffusion to a 1D random walk, numerous diffusive hops are replaced with first-passage time to make one large jump to a new location. As a test, we have applied our method to carry out multilayer growth simulations of three different models. We note that despite the additional overhead, the FPT approach leads to a significant speed-up compared to regular KMC simulations. Finally, we present results obtained from KMC simulations of irreversible submonolayer island growth with strain and rapid island relaxation. Our results indicate that in the presence of large strain there is significant anisotropy in qualitative agreement with experiments on InAs/GaAs and Ge/Si growth. Somewhat surprisingly, we also find that the scaled island-size distribution depends only weakly on the effects of strain. This is in qualitative agreement with recent experimental results for InAs/GaAs(100) submonolayer growth.
