Emergence of step flow from an atomistic scheme of epitaxial growth in 1+1 dimensions.
The Burton-Cabrera-Frank (BCF) model for the flow of line defects (steps) on crystal surfaces has offered useful insights into nanostructure evolution. This model has rested on phenomenological grounds. Our goal is to show via scaling arguments the emergence of the BCF theory for noninteracting steps from a stochastic atomistic scheme of a kinetic restricted solid-on-solid model in one spatial ...
متن کاملEpitaxial growth of thin films
The term ‘epitaxial’ is applied to a film grown on top of the crystalline substrate in ordered fashion that atomic arrangement of the film accepts crystallographic structure of the substrate. Epitaxial growth is one of the most important techniques to fabricate various ‘state of the art’ electronic and optical devices. Modern devices require very sophisticated structure, which are composed of t...
متن کاملCrossover effects in the Wolf-Villain model of epitaxial growth in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions.
A simple model of epitaxial growth proposed by Wolf and Villain is investigated using extensive computer simulations. We find an unexpectedly complex crossover behavior of the original model in both 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions. A crossover from the effective growth exponent βeff ≈0.37 to βeff ≈0.33 is observed in 1+1 dimensions, whereas additional crossovers, which we believe are to the scaling beha...
متن کاملSize-dependent silicon epitaxy at mesoscale dimensions.
New discoveries on collective processes in materials fabrication and performance are emerging in the mesoscopic size regime between the nanoscale, where atomistic effects dominate, and the macroscale, where bulk-like behavior rules. For semiconductor electronics and photonics, dimensional control of the architecture in this regime is the limiting factor for device performance. Epitaxial crystal...
متن کاملStressed solid-phase epitaxial growth of ion-implanted amorphous silicon
The kinetics of stressed solid-phase epitaxial growth (SPEG), also referred to as solid-phase epitaxy, solidphase epitaxial regrowth, solid-phase epitaxial recrystallization, and solid-phase epitaxial crystallization, of amorphous (a) silicon (Si) created via ion-implantation are reviewed. The effects of hydrostatic, in-plane uniaxial, and normal uniaxial compressive stress on SPEG kinetics are...
