Area of Science:

  • Surface science and condensed matter physics.
  • Statistical mechanics and complex systems.

Background:

  • Simulating adsorption-reaction processes at surface defects is crucial.
  • Existing models may not fully capture the behavior at zero average interface velocity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce a novel kinetic interface model for adsorption-reaction processes at surface defects.
  • Investigate the delocalization transition of a self-affine interface at zero average velocity.
  • Characterize the fractal nature and critical exponents of the interface near the transition.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a kinetic interface model.
  • Utilizing Monte Carlo simulations.
  • Employing scaling arguments.

Main Results:

  • The model simulates adsorption-reaction processes at surface defects like steps and vacancies.
  • At zero average interface velocity, a delocalization transition occurs.
  • The interface transforms into a multivalued, multiply connected, self-similar fractal set.
  • Critical exponents belong to a distinct universality class.

Conclusions:

  • The kinetic interface model effectively captures complex surface phenomena.
  • The delocalization transition at zero velocity reveals a new universality class for fractal interfaces.
  • The findings provide insights into surface defect dynamics and fractal geometry.
