A Phase Field Model for Grain Growth and Thermal Grooving in Thin Films with Orientation Dependent Surface Energy

Abstract. A phase field model for simulating grain growth and thermal grooving in thin films is presented. Orientation dependence of the surface free energy and misorientation dependence of the grain boundary free energy are included in the model. Moreover, the model can treat different mechanisms for groove formation, namely through volume diffusion, surface diffusion, evaporation-condensation...

Molecular Dynamics Analysis of Grain-Boundary Grooving in Thin-Film Interconnects for ULSIs

Grain-boundary grooving in an Al thin film was analyzed by molecular-dynamics simulation. The simulation result showed that the groove was formed by atom transport due to diffusion at the intersection of the grain-boundary and free surface. The effect of impurity on groove formation was analyzed in terms of atomic radius and bond energy. It was found that when the atomic radius of an impurity i...

Surface transport in premelted films with application to grain-boundary grooving.

We present a new model of surface transport in premelted films that is applicable to a wide range of materials close to their melting points. We illustrate its use by applying it to the evolution of a grain-boundary groove in a high vapor pressure material and show that Mullins's classical equation describing transport driven by gradients in surface curvature is reproduced asymptotically. The m...

Chemically induced grain boundary dynamics, forced motion by curvature, and the appearance of double seams

The free boundary model of diffusion-induced grain boundary motion derived in Cahn et al. [3], Fife et al. [6] and Cahn & Penrose [4] is extended, in the case of thin metallic films, to account for bidirectional motion, together with the appearance of S-shapes and double seam configurations. These are often observed in the laboratory. Computer simulations based on the extended model are given t...

A Mathematical Model for Grain Growth in Thin Metallic Films

We use geometrical arguments based on grain boundary symmetries to introduce crystalline interfacial energies for interfaces in polycrystalline thin lms with a cubic lattice. These crystalline energies are incorporated into a multi{phase eld model. Our aim is to apply the multi{phase eld method to describe the evolution of faceted grain boundary triple junctions in epitaxially growing microstru...
