| الوصف: | We use a multiscale approach to study a lattice-gas model of submonolayer growth of Fe/Mo(110) by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. To begin with, we construct a two-dimensional lattice-gas model of the Fe/Mo(110) system based on first-principles calculations of the monomer diffusion barrier and adatom-adatom interactions. The model is investigated by equilibrium Monte Carlo (MC) simulations to compute the diffusion coefficients of Fe islands of different sizes. These quantities are then used as input to the coarse-grained Kinetic Rate Equation (KRE) approach, which provides time evolution of the island size distributions for a system undergoing diffusion driven aggregation within the 2D submonolayer regime. We calculate these distributions at temperatures T=500 K and 1000 K using the KRE method. We also employ direct kinetic MC simulations of our model to study island growth at T=500 K, and find good agreement with the KRE results, which validates our multi-scale approach. ; Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter |
