Dynamics of surface roughening with quenched disorder.
We study the dynamical exponent z for the directed percolation depinning (DPD) class of models for surface roughening in the presence of quenched disorder. We argue that z for d 1 1 dimensions is equal to the exponent dmin characterizing the shortest path between two sites in an isotropic percolation cluster in d dimensions. To test the argument, we perform simulations and calculate z for DPD, ...
متن کاملSurface dynamics below the roughening transition
~Ve consider conventional relaxation dynamics for surfaces, both evaporation dynamics and surface diffusion. We point out that the cusp singularity of the surface free energy implies that the relaxation dynamics has to be treated as a free boundary value problem. On this basis we predict, under appropriate conditions, the spontaneous formation of facets and a finite time of healing for the high
متن کاملFrom Surface Roughening to Qcd String Theory
There exists great interest and considerable effort to explain quark confinement in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) from the string theory viewpoint. The ideas of ’t Hooft, Polyakov, Witten, and others, and recent glueball spectrum or QCD string tension calculations in AdS theories are some illustrative examples of these activities. In a somewhat complementary approach, the search for a microscopi...
متن کاملReal-space measurement of the potential distribution inside organic semiconductors.
We demonstrate that the soft nature of organic semiconductors can be exploited to directly measure the potential distribution inside such an organic layer by scanning-tunneling microscope (STM) based spectroscopy. Keeping the STM feedback system active while reducing the tip-sample bias forces the tip to penetrate the organic layer. From an analysis of the injection and bulk transport processes...
متن کاملUniversality issues in surface kinetic roughening of thin solid films
Since publication of the main contributions on the theory of kinetic roughening more than fifteen years ago, many works have been reported on surface growth or erosion that employ the framework of dynamic scaling. This interest was mainly due to the predicted existence of just a few universality classes to describe the statistical properties of the morphology of growing surfaces and interfaces ...
