✦ Synopsis

We present a level set based numerical algorithm for simulating a model of epitaxial growth. The island dynamics model is a continuum model for the growth of thin films. In this paper, we emphasize the details of the numerical method used to simulate the island dynamics model.

A method is introduced to decrease the computational labor of the standard level set method for propagating interfaces. The fast approach uses only points close to the curve at every time step. We describe this new algorithm and compare its efficiency and accuracy with the standard level set approac

Modeling of microstructural evolution during thin-film deposition requires a knowledge of several key activation energies (surface diffusion, island edge atom diffusion, adatom migration over descending step edges, etc.). These and other parameters must be known as a function of crystal orientation.

nanowires were solid inside. A high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) image (Fig. 4) indicates that the nanowires form from the stacking of ( 001) sheets (see the inset) along the radial directions, which are not rolled as in the case of carbon nanotubes. It can be clearly seen tha
