It presents a framework, associated services and a general user workflow, which will allow end-users to automatically retrieve additional information about objects they capture with their GNSS-enabled m...

We consider the influence of realistic island diffusion rates to homoepitaxial growth on metallic surfaces using a recently developed rate equation model which describes growth in the submonolayer regime with hyperthermal deposition. To this end, we incorporate realistic size and temperature-dependent island diffusion coefficients for the case of homoepitaxial growth on Cu(100) and Cu(111) surf...
