Ln. Aleksandrov et al., STUDY OF FILM CRYSTALLIZATION KINETICS INITIAL-STAGE BY MONTE-CARLO SIMULATION, Crystal research and technology, 29(1), 1994, pp. 25-31
Monte Carlo Simulation has been used for studying the initial stage ch
aracteristics of film crystallization during the layer-by-layer film g
rowth by two-dimensional nucleation. It is shown that the non-monotono
us changes of the growing film perimeter and mass correspond to the re
flection intensity oscillation from the growth surface. The observed c
hanges of the overgrowing part of the surface are in agreement with th
e probability-statistical calculations. The vizualization of surface r
elief changes during the growth process under different conditions has
been provided.
