Modeling epitaxial film growth of C$_{60}$ revisited
William Janke,
Thomas Speck
Abstract:Epitaxial films evolve on time and length scales that are inaccessible to atomistic computer simulation methods like molecular dynamics (MD). To numerically predict properties for such systems, a common strategy is to employ kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations, for which one needs to know the transition rates of the involved elementary steps. The main challenge is thus to formulate a consistent model for the set of transition rates and to determine its parameters. Here we revisit a well-studied model system,… Show more
