Monte Carlo simulation of the irreversible growth of magnetic thin films
The growth of magnetic films with ferromagnetic interactions between nearest-neighbor spins is studied in (d + 1)−dimensional rectangular geometries for d = 1, 2. Magnetic films are grown irreversibly by adding spins at the boundaries of the growing interface. The orientation of the added spins depends on both the energetic interaction with already deposited spins and the temperature, through a...
متن کاملKinetic Monte Carlo simulations of surface growth during plasma deposition of silicon thin films.
Based on an atomically detailed surface growth model, we have performed kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations to determine the surface chemical composition of plasma deposited hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin films as a function of substrate temperature. Our surface growth kinetic model consists of a combination of various surface rate processes, including silyl (SiH(3)) radical che...
متن کاملPath Integral Monte Carlo Simulations of Thin 4 He Films on a H 2 Surface
Atomically thin 4 He lms of up to three monolayers on molecular hydrogen (1,1,1) surfaces are studied at T=0.5 K, using path integral Monte Carlo. We compute the binding energy of 4 He to the H 2 substrate as a function of 4 He coverage and obtain evidence of the prewetting transition. Density pro les perpendicular to the 4 He-H 2 interface are obtained, as well as the zero point motion and e e...
متن کاملPoster SURFACE GROWTH MODELED BY AB-INITIO MONTE CARLO SIMULATION
It is well known that certain materials show a granular structure in their surfaces, with hills of several heights and lateral extensions. Thermodynamic and kinetic determine how the film surface develops. Thermodynamic dictates the growing process, layer by layer, islanding or by a mixed mechanism. Kinetic plays an equally important role since island nucleation and growth is controlled by surf...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Interfacial Tension of Ultra-thin Liquid Films on a Solid Surface
The effect of wall proximity on the interfacial tension of ultra-thin liquid films of Lennard-Jones (12,6) fluid has been studied using Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The wall’s presence can potentially affect drop-wise condensation and other phase change phenomena such as boiling. Initially the LennardJones atoms are placed near a solid wall with FCC lattice structure in a doubly periodic box....
