Correlation functions and queuing phenomena in growth processes with drift
Abstract
We suggest a novel stochastic discrete growth model which describes the drifted Edward-Wilkinson (EW) equation . From the stochastic model, the anomalous behavior of the drifted EW equation with a defect is analyzed. To physically understand the anomalous behavior the height-height correlation functions and are also investigated, where the defect is located at . The height-height correlation functions follow the power law and with around a perfect defect at which no growth process is allowed. is the same as the anomalous roughness exponent . For the weak defect at which the growth process is partially allowed, the normal EW behavior is recovered. We also suggest a new type queuing process based on the asymmetry of the correlation function around the perfect defect.
