The epitaxial growth process of a high symmetry surface occurs because adatoms meet and nucleate new islands, that eventually coalesce and complete atomic layers. During multilayer growth, nucleation usually takes place on top of terraces…
The typical island distance $\ell$ in submonlayer epitaxial growth depends on the growth conditions via an exponent $\gamma$. This exponent is known to depend on the substrate dimensionality, the dimension of the islands, and the size $i^*$…
