## Abstract In stepβgrowth polymerizations, the molar concentration of reactive linear species (oligomers and polymers) decreases with higher conversions and finally reaches zero at 100% conversion. This selfβdilution favors cyclization at the expense of chainβgrowth. Cyclization reduces the averag
Diffusion of a Si adatom over the reconstructed Si 100 surface with a single-height step on it is studied using the pseudopotential total energy method. The S rebonded step is B shown to act as a good sink for adatoms descending onto the lower ledge. This is due to the presence of deep traps on the
