Mechanism For Spatial Organization In Quantum Dot Self-Assembly, Da Gao, Adam Kaczynski, John A. Jaszczak
Mechanism For Spatial Organization In Quantum Dot Self-Assembly, Da Gao, Adam Kaczynski, John A. Jaszczak
Department of Physics Publications
Inspired by experimental observations of spatially ordered growth hillocks on the (001) surfaces of natural graphite crystals, a mechanism for spatial organization in quantum dotself-assembly is proposed. The regular arrangement of steps from a screw dislocation-generated growth spiral provides the overall template for such ordering. An ordered array of quantum dots may be formed or nucleated from impurities driven to the step corners by diffusion and by their interactions with the spiral’s steps and kinks. Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of a solid-on-solid model supports the feasibility of such a mechanism.
Monte Carlo Simulations Of Surface Phase Transitions In A Modulated Layered Structure, Da Gao, John A. Jaszczak
Monte Carlo Simulations Of Surface Phase Transitions In A Modulated Layered Structure, Da Gao, John A. Jaszczak
Department of Physics Publications
A solid-on-solid model of a layered crystal, which has five layers per repeat period in the direction normal to the surface and with only nearest-neighbor interactions, is studied using Monte Carlo simulation to investigate the relationship between crystal structure and the corresponding surface phases. Equilibrium properties, such as the surface specific heat, interface width, and autocorrelation times, are studied as a function of temperature and system size. Results indicate three distinct surface phases exist in this model: a low-temperature flat phase, an intermediate-temperature disordered but flat phase, and a high-temperature rough phase. We suggest the possibility of introducing several intermediate …
Roughening And Preroughening Of Diamond-Cubic {111} Surfaces, Donald L. Woodraska, John A. Jaszczak
Roughening And Preroughening Of Diamond-Cubic {111} Surfaces, Donald L. Woodraska, John A. Jaszczak
Department of Physics Publications
A solid-on-solid model for {111} surfaces of diamond-cubic materials that correctly takes into account the diamond-cubic crystal structure has been developed for Monte Carlo simulation. In addition to a roughening transition at temperature TR, a distinct preroughening transition at TPR≈0.43TR is indicated by divergences in the surface specific heat and order-parameter susceptibility. Preroughening appears to arise naturally in our nearest-neighbor bond model from the entropic freedom available in the nontrivial crystal structure. Preroughening is shown to dramatically lower the nucleation barrier for growth and etching at low driving forces.
