Abstract
A microscopic model, proposed earlier [1, 2], for thin film growth fro m a gas phase on a solid substrate is developed. In the case of the is othermal kinetics of structureless particles, the exact equilibrium so lution for the ideal adsorbate is found, the effect of lateral interac tions is studied in the mean-field approximation, the quasi-equilibriu m solution of the model is analyzed, and calculations of the profile o f the growing film are performed for different cases.
