Can I read Coupling kinetic Monte-Carlo and continuum models with application to epitaxial growth on EtoBox?
Coupling kinetic Monte-Carlo and continuum models with application to epitaxial growth by Tim P. Schulze; Peter Smereka; Weinan E is a Engineering article available to read on EtoBox.
What is Coupling kinetic Monte-Carlo and continuum models with application to epitaxial growth about?
We present a hybrid method for simulating epitaxial growth that combines kinetic Monte-Carlo (KMC) simulations with the Burton-Cabrera-Frank model for crystal growth. This involves partitioning the computational domain into KMC regions and regions where we time-step a discretized diffusion equation. Computational speed and accuracy are discussed. We find that the method is significantly faster than KMC while accounting for stochastic fluctuations in a comparable way.
Who reads Coupling kinetic Monte-Carlo and continuum models with application to epitaxial growth?
