1D Cahn-Hilliard equation: Ostwald Ripening and Modulated Phase Systems
Using an approximate analytical solution of the Cahn-Hilliard equation describing the coalescence during a first order phase transition, we compute the characteristic time for one step of period doubling in Langer's self similar scenario for Ostwald ripening. As an application, we compute the thermodynamically stable period of a 1D modulated phase pattern.
متن کاملHomoepitaxial Ostwald ripening
This paper reports level set simulations of the Ostwald ripening of two-dimensional homoepitaxial islands. The simulation accurately accounts for both adatom diffusion between the islands and adatom attachment/detachment processes at the island edges. We compute the time evolution of the average island size and the full island size distribution function. The results provide support for a previo...
متن کاملPart I: Ostwald ripening theories
The physical basis behind the Ostwald ripening process for two-phase mixture has been reviewed in detail, using the various theories developed to describe this process. The Ostwald ripening, also termed second phase coarsening, is generally thought to be slow, diffusion-controlled process which occurs subsequent to phase separation under extremely small under-saturation levels. The major advanc...
متن کاملInterface Motion in the Ostwald Ripening and Chemotaxis Systems
Ostwald ripening and chemotaxis are two different mechanisms that describe particle motion throughout a domain. Ostwald ripening describes the redistribution of a solid solution due to energy potentials while chemotaxis is a cellular phenomenon where organisms move based on the presence of chemical gradients in their environment. Despite the two systems coming from disparate fields, they are co...
