Abstract: | We review some models for the dynamics of dewetting of ultra-thin solid films. We discuss the similarities and the differences between faceted and non-faceted systems. The faceting of the dewetting rim leads to corrections in the velocity of dewetting fronts both in flat and axisymmetric geometries. The faceting of the edge of the dewetting rim leads to a strong anisotropy of the dewetting instability. Faceting also induces novel dewetting regimes such as layer-by-layer dewetting, and monolayer dewetting. |
