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 study a thin film growth model with temperature activated diffusion of adsorbed particles, allowing for the formation of overhangs and pores, but without detachment of adatoms or clusters from the deposit. Simulations in one-dimensional…
We have investigated the relationship between the domain structure and the magnetic interactions in a series of FePt ferromagnetic thin films of varying thickness. As-made films grow in the magnetically soft and chemically disordered A1…
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…
Al2O3 thin films have been deposited at substrate temperatures between 500{\deg}C to 600{\deg}C by reactive magnetron sputtering using an additional arbitrary substrate bias to tailor the energy distribution of the incident ions. The films…
Coating two nearby bodies with thin ferromagnetic films one obtains, below the Curie temperature, two interacting sets of magnetic domains. The dynamical properties of the bodies in presence of this domain interaction have never been…
In limited mobility (LM) models of thin film deposition, the final position of each atom or molecule is chosen according to a set of stochastic rules before the incidence of another atom or molecule. Here we investigate the possibility of a…
We study the effect of long range dipolar forces on the dynamics and morphology of domain walls in magnetic thin films by numerical simulations of the spin-1 random field Ising model. By studying the size distribution of avalanches of…
Recent works have shown that the domain walls of room-temperature multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) thin films can display distinct and promising functionalities. It is thus important to understand the mechanisms underlying domain formation in…
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…
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…
In this work we investigate influence of substrate temperature on the surface morphology for substrate coverage below one monolayer. The model of film growth is based on random deposition enriched by limited surface diffusion. Also…
Epitaxial growth methods are a key technology used in producing large-area thin films on substrates but as a result of various factors controlling growth processes the rational optimization of growth conditions is rather difficult.…
Domain-wall dynamics and spatial fluctuations are closely related to each other and to universal features of disordered systems. Experimentally measured roughness exponents characterizing spatial fluctuations have been reported for magnetic…
We present results for the kinetics of phase separation in solid binary mixtures ($A_1+A_2$) from Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model in two dimensions. The simulation results are understood via appropriate application of the…
The instability, dynamics and morphological transitions of patterns in thin liquid films on periodic striped surfaces (consisting of alternating less and more wettable stripes) are investigated based on 3-D nonlinear simulations that…
Measurements of the ac magnetic susceptibility of perpendicularly magnetized Fe/2ML Ni/W(110) ultrathin films show a clear signature of the dynamics of domain growth and domain density changes in the striped domain pattern that this system…
Magnetic properties of MnAs were studied as a function of temperature with a superconducting interference device (5 K to 350 K), and atomic force microscopy/magnetic force microscopy (20 K to 360 K). Structural and magnetic properties of…
The random deposition model must be enriched to reflect the variety of surface roughness due to some material characteristics of the film growing by vacuum deposition or sputtering. The essence of the computer simulation in this case is to…
We perform a mass constrained phase-field approximation for a model that describes the epitaxial growth of a two-dimensional thin film on a substrate in the context of linearised elasticity. The approximated model encodes a variable on the…
