“…Energy is an addi tional barrier to migration during the diffusion of cobalt atoms under the copper surface, which depends on depth z at which the cobalt atom is located. The expressions for attachment probabilities and are obtained with allowance for the normalization of frequencies and (11) Within the classical theory of elasticity [15,16], we can estimate energies and as (12) where = 0.085 eV is the specific elastic energy at the cobalt cluster-copper interface. Energies and , obtained with respect to the lattice geometry, cluster shape, and energies of the cobalt-cobalt, cobalt-copper, and copper-copper bonds [17], are = 0.21 eV and = 0.28 eV.…”
