摘要:
This paper presents a three-dimensional simulation for the surface evolution of a strained film on a thick substrate. The simulation shows that an initially random morphology will first transform into a profile dominated by two-dimensional ridges, and then into a three-dimensional island surface. The simulation also demonstrates that the ridge-island transition is a kinetic process which can be delayed by changing the initial morphology.
