Temperature Effects in the Initial Stages of Heteroepitaxial Film Growth

Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of a model of thin film heteroepitaxy are performed to investigate the effects of the deposition temperature in the initial growth stages. Broad ranges of the rates of surface processes are used to model materials with several activation energies and several temperatu...
