Direct observation of epitaxial organic film growth: temperature-dependent growth mechanisms and metastability.
The growth of the first ten layers of organic thin films on a smooth metallic substrate has been investigated in real-time using the model system PTCDA on Ag(111). The complex behaviour is comprehensively studied by electron microscopy, spectroscopy and diffraction in a combined PEEM/LEEM instrument revealing several new phenomena and yielding a consistent picture of this layer growth. PTCDA gr...
متن کاملDirect Observation of Early-Stage Quantum Dot Growth Mechanisms with High-Temperature Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics
Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) exhibit highly desirable sizeand shapedependent properties for applications from electronic devices to imaging. Indium phosphide QDs have emerged as a primary candidate to more toxic CdSe QDs, but production of InP QDs with the desired properties lags behind other QD materials due to a poor understanding of how to tune the growth process. Using high-temperature ab i...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of the Temperature-Dependent Growth of Living Systems
In this investigation a non-equilibrium thermodynamic model of the temperature dependent biological growth of a living systems has been analyzed. The results are derived on the basis of Gompertzian growth equation. In this model, we have considered the temperature dependent growth rate and development parameter. The non-equilibrium thermodynamic model is also considered for exploring the variat...
متن کاملCoverage dependent adsorption dynamics in hyperthermal organic thin film growth.
We have examined the dynamics of adsorption of diindenoperylene (DIP) on SiO(2) and SiO(2) modified with an interfacial organic layer using in situ real time synchrotron x-ray scattering, focusing on the effects of coverage. On both surfaces we observe a substantial increase in the probability of adsorption with increasing coverage, which is most dramatic at the highest incident kinetic energie...
متن کاملModeling and Control of Epitaxial Thin Film Growth
Thin film deposition is a manufacturing process in which tolerances may approach the size of individual atoms. The final film is highly sensitive to the processing conditions, which can be intentionally manipulated to control film properties. A lattice model of surface evolution during thin film growth captures many important features, including the nucleation and growth of clusters of atoms an...
