چکیده

We argue that symmetries and conservation laws greatly restrict the form of the terms entering the long wavelength description of growth models exhibiting anomalous roughening. This is exploited to show by dynamic renormalization group arguments that intrinsic anomalous roughening cannot occur in local growth models. However, some conserved dynamics may display superroughening if a given type of term is present.

Anomalous roughening of Hele-Shaw flows with quenched disorder.

The kinetic roughening of a stable oil-air interface moving in a Hele-Shaw cell that contains a quenched columnar disorder (tracks) has been studied. A capillary effect is responsible for the dynamic evolution of the resulting rough interface, which exhibits anomalous scaling. The three independent exponents needed to characterize the anomalous scaling are determined experimentally. The anomalo...

Localization in disordered media, anomalous roughening, and coarsening dynamics of faceted surfaces.

We study a surface growth model related to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation for nonequilibrium kinetic roughening, but where the thermal noise is replaced by a static columnar disorder eta(x) . This model is one of the many representations of the problem of particle diffusion in trapping or amplifying disordered media. We find that probability localization in the latter translates into facet fo...

Kinetic roughening in a realistic model of non-conserved interface growth

We provide a quantitative picture of non-conserved interface growth from a diffusive field making special emphasis on two main issues, the range of validity of the effective small-slopes (interfacial) theories and the interplay between the emergence of morphologically instabilities in the aggregate dynamics, and its kinetic roughening properties. Taking for definiteness electrochemical depositi...

A bifractal nature of reticular patterns induced by oxygen plasma on polymer films

Plasma etching was demonstrated to be a promising tool for generating self-organized nano-patterns on various commercial films. Unfortunately, dynamic scaling approach toward fundamental understanding of the formation and growth of the plasma-induced nano-structure has not always been straightforward. The temporal evolution of self-aligned nano-patterns may often evolve with an additional scale...

Anomalous scaling of fracture surfaces

We argue that fracture surfaces may exhibit anomalous dynamic scaling properties akin to what occurs in some models of kinetic roughening. We determine the complete scaling behavior of the local fluctuations of a brittle fracture in a granite block from experimental data. We obtain a global roughness exponent x51.2 which differs from the local one, x loc50.79. Implications on fracture physics a...
