Download or read book Multiscale Modeling in Epitaxial Growth written by Axel Voigt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epitaxy is relevant for thin film growth and is a very active area of theoretical research since several years. Recently powerful numerical techniques have been used to link atomistic effects at the film's surface to its macroscopic morphology. This book also serves as an introduction into this highly active interdisciplinary field of research for applied mathematicians, theoretical physicists and computational materials scientists.
