Growth of Calcite in Confinement
Slow growth of calcite in confinement is abundant in Nature and man made materials. There is ample evidence that such confined growth may create forces that fracture solids. The thermodynamic limits are well known but since confined crystal growth is transport limited and difficult to control in experiment we have almost no information on the mechanisms or limits of these processes. We present ...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
A Simple Model for Anisotropic Step Growth
We consider a simple model for the growth of isolated steps on a vicinal crystal surface. It incorporates diffusion and drift of adatoms on the terrace, and strong step and kink edge barriers. Using a combination of analytic methods and Monte Carlo simulations, we study the morphology of growing steps in detail. In particular, under typical Molecular Beam Epitaxy conditions the step morphology ...
متن کاملAnisotropic Step Stiffness from a Kinetic Model of Epitaxial Growth
Starting from a detailed model for the kinetics of a step edge or island boundary, we derive a Gibbs-Thomson type formula and the associated step stiffness as a function of the step edge orientation angle, θ. Basic ingredients of the model are: (i) the diffusion of point defects (“adatoms”) on terraces and along step edges; (ii) the convection of kinks along step edges; and (iii) constitutive l...
متن کاملKinetics of step bunching during growth: a minimal model.
We study a minimal stochastic model of step bunching during growth on a one-dimensional vicinal surface. The formation of bunches is controlled by the preferential attachment of atoms to descending steps (inverse Ehrlich-Schwoebel effect) and the ratio d of the attachment rate to the terrace diffusion coefficient. For generic parameters (d>0) the model exhibits a very slow crossover to a nontri...
