Stretched exponential relaxation in the mode-coupling theory for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We study the mode-coupling theory for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation in the strong-coupling regime, focusing on the long time properties. By a saddle point analysis of the mode-coupling equations, we derive exact results for the correlation function in

Influence of dimer buckling on dimer diffusion: A scanning tunneling microscopy study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The diffusion of Ge dimers along the substrate dimer rows of Ge(001) has been investigated with scanning tunneling microscopy. The jump frequency of on-top Ge dimers along symmetric dimer rows at room temperature is found to be eight times higher than ...

Finite size effects: deuterium diffusion in nm thick vanadium layers

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
We investigate the effect of finite size on the chemical diffusion of deuterium in extremely thin V(001) layers. A five fold increase in the diffusion coefficient is observed at concentrations around 0.2 [D/V], when the thickness of the V is decreased ...

Diffusion on a solid surface: Anomalous is normal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present a numerical study of classical particles diffusing on a solid surface. The particles' motion is modeled by an underdamped Langevin equation with ordinary thermal noise.

Theoretical analysis of particle size re-distribution due to Ostwald ripening in the fuel cell catalyst layer

open access: yesOpen Physics, 2019
The limited durability of hydrogen fuel cells is one of the main obstacles in their wider adoption as a clean alternative technology for small scale electricity production.

Growth Kinetics of CoB–Co2B Layers Using the Powder-Pack Boriding Process Assisted by a Direct Current Field

open access: yesHigh Temperature Materials and Processes, 2019
New results about the growth kinetics of CoB–Co2B layers developed at the surface of CoCrMo alloy using the powder-pack boriding process assisted by a direct current field (PBDCF) were estimated in this work.

Novel Microscopic Mechanism of Intermixing during Growth on Soft Metallic Substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Generic computer simulations using empiric interatomic potentials suggest a new, collective mechanism that could be responsible for mixing at heteroepitaxial interfaces.

Evaporation and Step Edge Diffusion in MBE

open access: yes, 1998
Using kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations of a Solid-on-Solid model we investigate the influence of step edge diffusion (SED) and evaporation on Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE). Based on these investigations we propose two strategies to optimize MBE-growth. The

Drift-Induced Step Instabilities Due to the Gap in the Diffusion Coefficient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
On a Si(111) vicinal face near the structural transition temperature, the $1 \times 1$ structure and the $7 \times 7$ structure coexist in a terrace: the $1 \times 1$ structure is in the lower side of the step edge and the $7 \times 7$ structure in the ...
