Abstract:
We generalize previous stochastic classical trajectory-ghost atom calculations for describing palladium deposition onto the Ni(111) surface between 0.1 and 0.5 monolayers. The growth evolves through two-dimensional islands. The islands are formed following the downward funneling mechanism. Surface temperature does not affect the island growth.
