We study the effects of time-dependent substrate/film temperature in the deposition of a mesoscopically thick film using a statistical model that accounts for diffusion of adatoms without lateral neighbors whose coefficients depend on an…
We report on the investigation of height distributions (HDs) and spatial covariances of two-dimensional surfaces obtained from extensive numerical simulations of the celebrated Clarke-Vvedensky (CV) model for homoepitaxial thin film growth.…
Monte Carlo simulations are employed to investigate the surface growth generated by deposition of particles of different sizes on a substrate, in one and two dimensions. The particles have a linear form, and occupy an integer number of…
The morphological scaling properties of linear polymer films grown by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) are studied by 1+1D Monte Carlo simulations. The model implements the basic processes of random angle ballistic deposition ($F$),…
The surface morphologies of poly(chloro-p-xylylene) films were measured using atomic force microscopy and analyzed within the frame work of the dynamic scaling theory. The evolution of polymer films grown with fixed experimental parameters…
As a first step to understand anomalous kinetic roughening with multifractality in recent experiments of the vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) growth, we study a simple toy model of the VDP growth in a (1+1)-dimensional lattice, along…
Modeling deformation at elevated temperatures using discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) is a recent area of high interest. However, the literature dedicated to this subject fails to address the variations of DDD parameters with temperature.…
The peculiarities of thermal expansion of $bcc$ and $fcc$ zirconium films with (100) and (110) crystallographic orientations are studied at a constant zero pressure by the molecular dynamics (MD) method with a many-body interatomic…
In this paper, we perform a detailed study of the scaling properties of a ferromagnetic thin film model. Recently, interest has increased in the scaling properties of the magnetic domain wall (MDW) motion in disordered media when an…
We report on the growth dynamic of CdTe thin films for deposition temperatures ($T$) in the range of $150\,^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ to $300\,^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$. A relation between mound evolution and large-wavelength fluctuations at CdTe…
Ferroelastic domain walls (DWs) underpin key functionalities in complex oxides. In free-standing ferroic thin films, where elastic interactions are highly thickness dependent, understanding DW behaviour across length scales and external…
We study the statistics of the number of executed hops of adatoms at the surface of films grown with the Clarke-Vvedensky (CV) model in simple cubic lattices. The distributions of this number, $N$, are determined in films with average…
CdTe films grown on glass substrates covered by fluorine doped tin oxide by Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) were studied through the interface dynamical scaling theory. Direct measures of the dynamical exponent revealed an intrinsically anomalous…
We measure the isothermal rejuvenation of stable glass films of poly(styrene) and poly(methylmethacrylate). We demonstrate that the propagation of the front responsible for the transformation to a supercooled-liquid state can serve as a…
Physical vapor deposition (PVD) is widely used in manufacturing ultra-thin layers of amorphous organic solids. Here, we demonstrate that these films exhibit a sharp transition from glassy solid to liquid-like behavior with thickness below…
The $\alpha$-process (segmental motion) of thin polystyrene films supported on glass substrate has been investigated in a wider frequency range from 10$^{-3}$ Hz to 10$^4$ Hz using dielectric relaxation spectroscopy and thermal expansion…
Using numerical simulations, we perform an extensive finite-size analysis of the transverse diffusion coefficient in a sheared 2D amorphous solid, over a broad range of strain rates, at temperatures up to the supercooled liquid regime. We…
We perform molecular dynamics simulations of a supported molecular thin film. By varying thickness and temperature, we observe anisotropic mobility as well as strong gradients of both the vibrational motion and the structural relaxation…
We study the dynamic wetting of a self-propelled viscous droplet using the time-dependent lubrication equation on a conical-shaped substrate for different cone radii, cone angles and slip lengths. The droplet velocity is found to increase…
We study the local and global roughness scaling in growth models with grains at the film surfaces. The local roughness, measured as a function of window size r, shows a crossover at a characteristic length r_c, from a rapid increase with…
