We show that to account for the full spectrum of surface fluctuations from low scattering vector qd << 1 (classical capillary wave theory) to high qd > 1 (bulk-like fluctuations), one must take account of the interface's bending rigidity at…
Motivated by a series of experiments that revealed a temperature dependence of the dynamic scaling regime of growing surfaces, we investigate theoretically how a nonequilibrium growth process reacts to a sudden change of system parameters.…

In many growth processes particles are highly mobile in an active layer at the surface, but are relatively immobile once incorporated in the bulk. We study models in which atoms are allowed to interact, equilibrate, and order on the…
