Can One Have Preroughening of Vicinal Surfaces?
We discuss the possibility that, besides roughening, a vicinal surface could display preroughening (PR), and consider the possible mechanisms for its promotion. Within the framework of a terrace-step-kink model, it turns out that a PR transition is possible, and could be induced by a short-range repulsion between parallel kinks along the same step or on adjacent steps, or even by some kind of e...
متن کاملRoughening of Ion-eroded Surfaces
Recent experimental studies focusing on the morphological properties of surfaces eroded by ion-bombardment report the observation of self-affine fractal surfaces, while others provide evidence about the development of a periodic ripple structure. To explain these discrepancies we derive a stochastic growth equation that describes the evolution of surfaces eroded by ion bombardment. The coeffici...
متن کاملAtomic-scale observation of temperature and pressure driven preroughening and roughening.
Preroughening and roughening transitions are observed on the GaAs(001) surface using scanning tunneling microscopy. By tuning the substrate temperature or As4 pressure the surface morphology can be made free of islands, covered with one monolayer high islands or covered with islands on top of islands forming a wedding-cake-type structure. These three distinct surface morphologies are classified...
متن کاملRoughening and preroughening in the six-vertex model with an extended range of interaction.
We study the phase diagram of the BCSOS model with an extended interaction range using transfer matrix techniques, pertaining to the (100) surface of single component fcc and bcc crystals. The model shows a 2×2 reconstructed phase and a disordered flat phase. The deconstruction transition between these phases merges with a Kosterlitz-Thouless line, showing an interplay of Ising and Gaussian deg...
متن کاملTheoretical Study of the Energetic Stability and Geometry of Terminated and B-Doped Diamond (111) Surfaces
The effect of B doping on the surface (111) reactivity has, in the present study, been investigated for various surface terminations, H, OH, Oon-top, and F. This type of surface modification has experimentally been proven to be extremely important for, for example, applications based on surface electrochemistry. Density functional theory (DFT) has here been used to study both the local and more...
