![]() | Liu, Feng | Determination of the Ehrlich-Schwoebel barrier in epitaxial growth of thin films | We demonstrate an approach for determining the "effective" Ehrlich-Schwoebel (ES) step-edge barrier, an important kinetic constant to control the interlayer mass transport in epitaxial growth of thin films. The approach exploits the rate difference between the growth and/or decay of an adatom and a... | Ehrlich-Schwoebel barrier; Epitaxial growth; Step-edge barrier; Adatoms | 2006-11 |
