Solid–on–solid Model for Adsorption on Self–Affine Substrate: a Transfer Matrix Approach
We study a d = 2 discrete solid–on–solid model of complete wetting of a rough substrate with random self–affine boundary, having roughness exponent ζs. A suitable transfer matrix approach allows to discuss adsorption isotherms, as well as geometrical and thermal fluctuations of the interface. For ζs ≤ 1/2 the same wetting exponent ψ = 1/3 as for flat substrate is obtained for the dependence of ...
متن کاملDislocations in the ground state of the solid-on-solid model on a disordered substrate
We investigate the effects of topological defects (dislocations) to the ground state of the solid-on-solid (SOS) model on a simple cubic disordered substrate utilizing the min-cost-flow algorithm from combinatorial optimization. The dislocations are found to destabilize and destroy the elastic phase, particularly when the defects are placed only in partially optimized positions. For multi-defec...
متن کاملNucleation on a solid substrate: A density functional approach
We extend the density functional approach to the statistical mechanics of inhomogeneous fluids to calculate the rate of heterogeneous nucleation of the gas-to-liquid transition by a planar solid substrate. Comparison with classical nucleation theory ~extended to incorporate the line tension that results from three-phase contact! reveals the inadequacy of the latter approaches as the spinodal is...
متن کاملA model for bacterial conjugal gene transfer on solid surfaces.
Abstract Quantitative models of bacterial conjugation are useful tools in environmental risk assessment and in studies of the ecology and evolution of bacterial communities. We constructed a mathematical model for gene transfer between bacteria growing on a solid surface. The model considers that donor and recipient cells will form separate colonies, which grow exponentially until nutrient exha...
متن کاملA Simple Solid-on-solid Model of Epitaxial Film Growth: Submonolayer Substrate Coverage
In this work we investigate the influence of substrate temperature on the surface morphology for substrate coverage below one monolayer. The model of film growth is based on random deposition enriched by limited surface diffusion. Also anisotropy in the growth is involved. We found from computer simulations for the simple cubic lattice and solid-on-solid model, that the surface morphology chang...
