Nonequilibrium thin-film growth
Araujo, Nuno
When films growth under nonequilibrium conditions, phenomena not predicted from microscopic interactions emerge at the macroscopic level. Statistical Physics concepts and methods are then the meaningful methodology to study the problem. This book discusses the influence of the particle/particle and particle/substrate interaction rules on the morphology of the obtained film. Based on the work of the author''s phD thesis, interesting structures ...
