Thin Film Epitaxy with or without Slope Selection

Abstract. Two nonlinear diffusion equations for thin film epitaxy, with or without slope selection, are studied in this work. The nonlinearity models the Ehrlich-Schwoebel effect—the kinetic asymmetry in attachment and detachment of adatoms to and from terrace boundaries. Both perturbation analysis and numerical simulation are presented to show that such an atomistic effect is the origin of a n...

A Linear Energy Stable Scheme for a Thin Film Model Without Slope Selection

We present a linear numerical scheme for a model of epitaxial thin film growth without slope selection. The PDE, which is a nonlinear, fourth-order parabolic equation, is the L2 gradient flow of the energy ∫ (− 2 ln(1 + |∇φ|2)+ 2 2 | φ(x)|2)dx. The idea of convex-concave decomposition of the energy functional is applied, which results in a numerical scheme that is unconditionally energy stable,...

Unconditionally Stable Schemes for Equations of Thin Film Epitaxy

dx. The construction of the schemes involves an appropriate extension of Eyre’s idea of convex-concave decomposition of the energy functional. As an application, we derive unconditionally stable and convergent schemes for epitaxial film growth models with slope selection (F (y) = 1 4 (|y| − 1)) and without slope selection (F (y) = − 1 2 ln(1 + |y|)). We conclude the paper with some preliminary ...

Element Free Galerkin Method for Static Analysis of Thin Micro/Nanoscale Plates Based on the Nonlocal Plate Theory

In this article, element free Galerkin method is used for static analysis of thin micro/nanoscale plates based on the nonlocal plate theory. The problem is solved for the plates with arbitrary boundary conditions. Since shape functions of the element free Galerkin method do not satisfy the Kronecker’s delta property, the penalty method is used to impose the essential boundary conditions. Discre...

Second-order Convex Splitting Schemes for Gradient Flows with Ehrlich-Schwoebel Type Energy: Application to Thin Film Epitaxy

We construct unconditionally stable, unconditionally uniquely solvable, and secondorder accurate (in time) schemes for gradient flows with energy of the form ∫ Ω(F (∇φ(x))+ 2 2 |Δφ(x)|2) dx. The construction of the schemes involves the appropriate combination and extension of two classical ideas: (i) appropriate convex-concave decomposition of the energy functional and (ii) the secant method. A...
