This study simulates surface growth with restricted particle relaxation. A crossover from linear to nonlinear dynamics, governed by relaxation distance, was observed in 1D and indicated in 2D.

Area of Science:

  • Surface science
  • Condensed matter physics
  • Statistical mechanics

Background:

  • Surface morphology evolution is crucial in thin-film deposition.
  • Existing models often assume unrestricted particle relaxation.
  • Understanding relaxation limits is key to controlling surface growth.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate a discrete surface relaxation model with restricted particle movement.
  • To analyze the impact of relaxation distance on growth dynamics in 1D and 2D.
  • To explore the crossover between linear and nonlinear growth regimes.

Main Methods:

  • Simulating a discrete surface relaxation model in 1D and 2D.
  • Incorporating a particle evaporation mechanism for inaccessible local minima.

  • Analyzing the temporal behavior of surface roughness and growth exponent (beta).

    • Main Results:

    • In 1D, the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation's linear term dominates at short times, transitioning to nonlinear dominance at long times.
    • A characteristic crossover time (t(c)) was identified, dependent on the relaxation parameter (s).
    • Evidence suggests a similar crossover from logarithmic to power-law roughness behavior in 2D.

    Conclusions:

    • Restricted surface relaxation introduces a crossover in growth dynamics.
    • The relaxation distance (s) parameter critically influences the transition between linear and nonlinear growth.
    • The model provides insights into surface evolution under limited particle mobility.
