Modeling of Reactive Ion Etching for Si/Si02 Systems
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been used to study surface reaction dynamics of Si and Si02 etching by halogens. To perform classical MD simulations for Si02 etching reaction by halogens (C1 or F), we have constructed new sets of twoand three-body interatomic potential functions based on potential energy data obtained from ab initio quantum mechanical calculations of the electronic sta...
متن کاملRole of Interatomic Potentials in Simulation of Thermal Transport in Carbon Nanotubes
Interatomic potentials, which describe interactions between elements of nanosystems, are crucial in theoretical study of their physical properties. We focus on two well known empirical potentials, i.e. Tersoff's and Brenner's potentials, and compare their performance in calculation of thermal transport in carbon nanotubes. In this way, we study the temperature and diameter dependence of thermal...
متن کاملشبیه سازی خواص الاستیک نانو کامپوزیت Al-SiC با استفاده از روش دینامیک مولکولی
In the present work, molecular dynamics simulation method was used for determining Young's modulus, Shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio of Al-SiC nanocomposites, with different volume fractions of the reinforcements. For simulation, the open source package, LAMMPS, was used. After putting Aluminum and Silicon Carbide atoms in their initial positions, interatomic potentials between them were defi...
متن کاملPlanar Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Au Clusters in Pushing Process
Based on the fact the manipulation of fine nanoclusters calls for more precise modeling, the aim of this paper is to conduct an atomistic investigation for interaction analysis of particle-substrate system for pushing and positioning purposes. In the present research, 2D molecular dynamics simulations have been used to investigate such behaviors. Performing the planar simulations can provide a ...
متن کاملCryogenic etching of silicon with SF6/O2/SiF4 plasmas: a modelling and experimental study
Cyrogenic etching of silicon is envisaged to enable better control over plasma processing in microelectronics and to limit plasma induced damage for features beyond the 14 nm technology node. We here present results of plasma modelling for a SF6/O2/SiF4 plasma and of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for predicting surface interactions, together with results of etch experiments for validation.
