Title: | Diffusion and interconversion of 'defect' ad-dimers on the Si(001) 2*1 surface: A molecular statics study | Authors: | Toh, C.P. Ong, C.K. |
Issue Date: | 1993 | Citation: | Toh, C.P., Ong, C.K. (1993). Diffusion and interconversion of 'defect' ad-dimers on the Si(001) 2*1 surface: A molecular statics study. Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter 5 (5) : 551-558. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/5/5/006 | Abstract: | The authors use a modified form of the Stillinger-Weber potential to obtain the binding energy and geometry of a number of Si ad-dimer structures on the fully relaxed Si(001) 2*1 surface by canonical Monte Carlo simulation. At low temperatures they show the possible existence of two kinds of 'defect' ad-dimers which may hinder normal 1*2 growth. The mechanisms for both diffusion and interconversion of such dimers are then elucidated by examining their associated minimum-energy paths. | Source Title: | Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/96222 | ISSN: | 09538984 | DOI: | 10.1088/0953-8984/5/5/006 |
